See if you can clean the scanning rollers with a swab on a thin stick. I am not at my printer this week, but I think you can get in there. If the rollers are rubber (to pick up the paper), they could have dried out.

See if cleaning it that way or as I suggested helps.

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
Also look for foreign objects in the works - stray staples are a fruitful source of misfeeds.
Gently clean the feed rollers with a lint free cloth dampened with Isopropyl Alcohol.
Clean any areas you can, and then shut down the printer, restart and try scanning.
Things may have dried out form lack of use and it may need repair (not economical, so consider replacing).
I use my own 8610 all the time and it continues to work well after 3 or so years.
