Hewlett Packard HP Scanjet 5530 Photosmart Scanner Download Drivers und Utilities

Software roll to address issues with the current software and compatibility with Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) for the Scanjet 5530 series of Scanjet scanners v.8.4

This download is the full HP Photosmart Studio v9.6.9 for the HP Scanjet 5530. This version of software provides full Universal Binary support and includes HP ScanPro v7.4.5

This download is the full Windows software for HP Photo and Imaging software v2.4.1 for the HP Scanjet 5530 Photosmart scanner.

This software provides TWAIN drivers as an alternative to the HP photo and imaging software scanning software that comes with the HP scanjet 5530 series of digital flatbed scanners.
These TWAIN drivers are an efficient way to gain access to TWAIN functionality. Many document management systems do not require all of the extended features included in the HP photo and imaging software.
Without these alternative TWAIN drivers, the entire HP photo and imaging software package must be installed in order to have access to a TWAIN driver. Moreover, alternative TWAIN drivers offer users a streamlined workflow for heavy document management and require less hard drive space for installation than HP photo and imaging scanning software.
Before installing and using the alternative TWAIN drivers, users should be aware that no user interface is supplied with the TWAIN drivers. In most cases, the software used with these TWAIN drivers will control the scanning process and the results will be completely satisfactory.
However, it should be noted that some applications, like ScanSoft's PaperPort, rely heavily on the host scanner's TWAIN user interface to change settings such as resolution, color level and page size. Because of the lack of a user interface with these alternative TWAIN drivers, and thus no opportunity (except in some applications) to change the scan settings, this software will not be ideal for all customers.

This update resolves a problem which causes an internal error when trying to save a multi-page scan to the PDF file format.
The problem may only happen intermittently and may depend on the total number and type of pages scanned.

This update will add Word 2003 and PowerPoint 2003* as selections in the 'send to' or 'destinations' list in HP's PrecisionScan LT, PrecisionScan, or PrecisionScan Pro scanning software.
Unless you have Microsoft Office 2003, you do not need to install this update.
* PowerPoint 2003 will not become available for the sj5200c, PrecisionScan v2.0x.

This update resolves a problem that causes loss of ReadIris (OCR) functionality when two different versions of HP photo and imaging software are installed on a system.
This problem may occur because the destinations component of the 5530c software was released with an incorrect version number. If another HP product that also uses HP photo and imaging software (such as certain all-in-one or photosmart printers) gets installed, the destination component may get replaced by an older version.
This software will replace the destinations component with the correct version.
Unless you have multiple versions of HP photo and imaging installed and also have developed loss of OCR functionality, you do not need to install this update.

This patch will resolve "Unexpected Internal Errors" and some "Communications Failure" errors that may occur when there are mutiple versions of HP Image Zone and/or Photo and Imaging software on your system.

This update fixes a problem when trying to TWAIN from one of the "full" versions of Adobe Acrobat 6.0:
Acrobat Professional 6.0
Acrobat Standard 6.0
Acrobat Elements 6.0.
This is a new version which replaces the version released on 10/16/03. This revised update better supports newer versions of HP's photo and imaging software.
Previous versions of Acrobat (v. 5.x and earlier) are not affected.
When trying to TWAIN from Acrobat 6.0 (<Create PDF>, <From Scanner>) you may get an error that prompts you to insert the HP software CD so needed files may be installed.
If you cancel out of the dialog, the scan proceeds normally. If you insert the CD and click "OK", problems such as system hangs or "Scanner not found" messages may occur. The defect may only show up randomly.
The exact text of the errors and the severity of related system problems vary from scanner to scanner.
If you don't have one of the full versions of Adobe Acrobat 6.0, you do not need this update. This problem does not affect scans using HP director even when Acrobat 6 is installed on the system.

This update will add Word 2003 and PowerPoint 2003 as selections in the "send to" list in HP's Photo and Imaging Scanning Software.
This is an updated version of the patch that fixes an issue that causes an invalid "administrative rights" error on some systems during install.
Unless you have Microsoft Office 2003, you do not need to install this update.
