What we fix

Scanner problems we fix

Tell us what happens when you try to scan. A technician works on the scanner itself as well as the connection and software it relies on.

  • Scanner hardware faults

    Streaky or faded scans, pages that jam or skip, or a lamp that will not light are faults in the scanner itself. We diagnose and repair them, at your home where possible or in our lab.

  • Scanner not detected or not working

    A scanner not found error, a scan button that does nothing, or scanner software that vanished after a computer upgrade usually points to drivers or the connection. We reinstall what is needed and run a real scan.

  • Scanner won't connect over Wi-Fi or USB

    Some scanners work by USB but not over Wi-Fi, or drop off the network after a router change. We check the network path and can reserve the device's address on the router so your computer keeps finding it.

  • Scan to email setup

    We configure scan-to-email using SMTP settings where your device supports it. Some older models cannot meet modern Gmail or Microsoft 365 security, so we explain what yours can do and suggest workarounds.

  • Scan to computer or network folder

    We set up scan-to-computer and scan-to-folder on Windows or Mac, including shared folders with the right permissions, then test the workflow you will use day to day.

  • Driver and scanning software problems

    Missing scanner drivers or a scanning app that will not open stop every scan. We install the available software for your device and check it on the computer you scan to.

  • Scanning from a multifunction device

    On many all-in-one devices the scanner shares the network and driver stack, so one function can work while scanning fails. We test the scan path separately so it works as well.

Hardware repairs

Scanner hardware repairs

When the fault is in the scanner rather than the software, a technician repairs the hardware. Common jobs include:

  • Scanner glass

    Marks, scratches or dirt on the glass or the feeder's scan strip show up as lines on every page. We find the cause and check the result with a test scan.

  • Lamp or light problems

    Dark, uneven or blank scans, or a light that does not come on, usually point to the scanner's lamp or light source.

  • Feeder rollers and document feeders

    Worn or dirty rollers make pages jam, skip, feed crooked or pull through several at once. We repair the feeder so multi-page scans go through reliably.

  • Streaky or faded scans

    Streaks, faded patches or washed-out colour can come from the glass, the light source or the feed path. We trace the cause rather than guess.

  • Jams and other faults

    Paper stuck in the feeder, error messages, unusual noises or a scanner that will not power on. Tell us what you see and we will look at any scanner fault.

Where we repair

Repaired at home, or in our lab

We try to fix your scanner at your home first, so you can see it working with your own computer before the technician leaves.

If the repair cannot be done on-site, the technician takes the scanner away, repairs it in our lab and returns it to you. We agree this with you before the scanner leaves your home.

Questions

Mobile scanner repair FAQs

Do you repair scanners at home in Adelaide?

Yes. A technician comes to your home anywhere in Adelaide and repairs both hardware faults and connection or software problems, then tests the scanner with the computer it scans to.

Can you fix a scanner that won't scan properly?

Yes. Streaky, faded or blank scans, pages that jam or skip, and a light that will not come on are usually hardware faults in the glass, lamp or feeder rollers. We diagnose the cause and repair it.

What if my scanner can't be fixed at home?

The technician takes it away, repairs it in our lab and brings it back to you. We agree this with you first, so nothing leaves your home without your approval.

Why won't my scanner connect?

A scanner that cannot be found usually has a driver, network path or connection problem. One that scans by USB but not over Wi-Fi, or stopped after a router change, needs the scanner and the network checked together.

Can you set up scan to email or scanning to a shared folder?

Yes, where your device supports it. We set up scan-to-email, scan-to-computer and scan-to-folder on Windows or Mac and test a real scan. Some older models cannot use modern Gmail or Microsoft 365 security; we explain what yours can do.

My all-in-one prints but won't scan. Can you fix that?

Often, yes. Scanning on a multifunction device relies on its own software and network path, so it can fail while printing still works. We check that path and test scanning before the visit ends.
