Try the HP Smart App from the Microsoft Store. Download it and run it. It has a scan utility. I use this and it works.

Unable to scan to a printer, via Devices and Printers ( in Control Panel) on a laptop with Windows 10 installed.<br />
Note, I am able to print to the printer, but cannot printer to the printer via the HP software.<br />
I do not recall the model of the printer, but the software that came with the printer, is installed. &nbsp;A document could not be scanned even with the HP software.<br />
The printer is a Wi-Fi enabled.<br />
Things not tried:<br />
1. Update the drivers using Dell Command Update<br />
2. Execute &nbsp;SFC /scannow<br />
3. Execute the DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth with admin rights.<br />
4. Run Windows 10 updates<br />
5. Look on the HP's knowledge base for a similar problem.<br />
6. Put a paper in the printer and press the scan button ( I am not sure if the printer has a scan button).<br />
<br />
Any ideas?

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.

Windows 10 is a personal computer operating system featuring the "universal application architecture" (UAP); apps can be designed to run across multiple devices with nearly identical code, including PCs, tablets, smartphones, embedded systems, Xbox One, Surface Hub and HoloLens. Windows 10 also includes a virtual desktop system, a window and desktop management feature called Task View, the Microsoft Edge web browser, support for fingerprint and face recognition login, voice-based search (Cortana), new security features for enterprise environments, and DirectX 12 and WDDM 2.0 to improve the operating system's graphics capabilities for games.

Windows 10

This topic area includes legacy versions of Windows prior to Windows 2000: Windows 3/3.1, Windows 95 and Windows 98, plus any other Windows-related versions including Windows Mobile.
