A printer is a peripheral which makes a persistent human readable representation of graphics or text on paper or similar physical media. Traditional printers are being used more for special purposes, like printing photographs or artwork, and are no longer a must-have peripheral; 3D printing has become an area of intense interest, allowing the creation of physical objects. An image scanner is a device that optically scans images, printed text, handwriting, or an object, and converts it to a digital image. Hand-held scanners, where the device is moved by hand, have evolved from text scanning "wands" to 3D scanners used for industrial design, reverse engineering, test and measurement, orthotics, gaming and other applications.

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.
