Many people find their <strong>HP scanner not working<\/strong>. This happens even after they update their operating system. You may find the scanner malfunctioning even when the printer is working fine.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Malfunctioning drivers are a leading cause of this issue. Although the problem does not come with an official error code, it makes it difficult for people to use the HP scanner. In this post, you will learn about the causes of this issue. After that, we will provide you with the best methods to make your HP scanner work effectively.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Why Is My HP Scanner Not Working<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You may discover that the HP Scan and Capture feature is not working in this case. This will prevent the HP printer from scanning. Sometimes, the computer may not detect the scanner, or errors may occur when using the scanner.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Some probable causes for it include the following.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>A connection issue.<\/li>\n<li>A glitch in the software.<\/li>\n<li>Corrupt system files<\/li>\n<li>The Windows Image Acquisition Service is disabled.<\/li>\n<li>Your operating system is incompatible with your HP printer.<\/li>\n<li>Faulty drivers<\/li>\n<li>The Windows Defender Firewall is creating issues.<\/li>\n<li>There\u2019s a glitch with your HP printer.<\/li>\n<li>Hardware issues<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">5 Fixes for the <strong>HP Scanner Not Working<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Now you need to troubleshoot these reasons one by one. Use these techniques to resolve HP scanning problems.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fix 1. Ensure that the scanner is connected to the network<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">First and foremost, you should ensure that your scanning device is powered on and is in a Ready state. After that, find out whether it is linked to the network. You must have a speedy internet connection.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If using a USB scanner, examine the cables and ports. There should be no signs of damage. Network scanner users should also ensure good internet connectivity, as the scanner needs a connection with your system via the internet.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Those using their system with a VPN should disconnect it from their computer. After that, try scanning and see if it works.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fix 2. Find if your printer is compatible with your Windows version<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Do you find your <strong>HP scanner not working on Windows 10<\/strong>? This problem occurs after updating to Windows 10 or 11. So, check that your printer is compatible with the new platform.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To check platform compatibility, use these steps.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Access the Windows 10 Compatible Printers page of HP printers on your web browser.<\/li>\n<li>Enlarge the series of HP printers on this page.<\/li>\n<li>Find your printer model.<\/li>\n<li>If you don\u2019t find your model there, it means it isn\u2019t compatible with Windows 10.<\/li>\n<li>Similarly, Windows 11 users should visit the Windows 11 Compatible HP Printers page.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fix 3. Update the outdated scanner driver<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you find an <strong>HP scanner not working but the printer is <\/strong>after a Windows update, it means the scanner drivers are obsolete. You can either install the drivers manually by comparing your model and operating system.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Head over to the official Hewlett-Packard website.<\/li>\n<li>Here you should find and download the scanner drivers that match your HP printer model.<\/li>\n<li>Note that it would take some time to find the correct scanner drivers.<\/li>\n<li>Once you download them, follow the instructions and install them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fix 4. Find out whether the WIA service is working<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Often, you may find the HP scanner not working if the WIA service is off. This problem mainly occurs on Windows 10 systems. So, start this service to fix the issue.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Trigger the Run box on your system by hitting the Windows key and R.<\/li>\n<li>On the search field, type \u2018services.msc.\u2019<\/li>\n<li>Press \u2018<strong>OK<\/strong>.\u2019<\/li>\n<li>Find the \u2018<strong>Windows Image Acquisition service<\/strong>\u2019 from the service list.<\/li>\n<li>Now, right-click on this service.<\/li>\n<li>Pick the \u2018<strong>Properties<\/strong>\u2019 option.<\/li>\n<li>Modify the startup type.<\/li>\n<li>Configure it as \u2018<strong>Automatic<\/strong>.\u2019<\/li>\n<li>Tap the \u2018<strong>Apply<\/strong>\u2019 button followed by \u2018<strong>OK<\/strong>.\u2019<\/li>\n<li>Apart from the WIA service, start other related services like \u2018<strong>DCOM Server Process Launcher<\/strong>\u2019, \u2018<strong>RPC Endpoint Mapper<\/strong>,\u2019 \u2018<strong>Remote Procedure Call RPC<\/strong>\u2019, and \u2018<strong>Shell Hardware Detection<\/strong>.\u2019<\/li>\n<li>Now reboot your Windows system.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fix 5. Install the HP Print and Scan Doctor app<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/support.hp.com\/us-en\/help\/printscandoctor-scanning-problems\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">HP Print and Scan Doctor tool<\/a><\/strong> is a great program to use when you find the HP scanner not working.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><strong>Access the official website of HP<\/strong> to download the file of the HP Print and Scan Doctor utility.<\/li>\n<li>After the file downloads, run it to install it on your system.<\/li>\n<li>The file name will be HPPSdr.exe.<\/li>\n<li>When it installs, open it and tap \u2018<strong>Start<\/strong>.\u2019<\/li>\n<li>Choose your HP scanner in the list.<\/li>\n<li>If you don\u2019t find it listed, turn it on and tap \u2018<strong>Retry<\/strong>.\u2019<\/li>\n<li>In case of connection issues, adhere to the prompts on your screen.<\/li>\n<li>Finally, tap the \u2018<strong>Fix scanning<\/strong>\u2019 option.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">How to Fix HP S<strong>canner not working on Mac<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Similar to Windows, users also find their <strong>HP scanner not working on Mac<\/strong>. A great fix is resetting the printing system on Mac. This fixes issues like stuck print jobs, faulty driver setups, and connection problems.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Tap the Spotlight icon.<\/li>\n<li>Now locate \u2018<strong>Printers &amp; Scanners<\/strong>\u2019 and open it.<\/li>\n<li>Right-click \u2018<strong>Control<\/strong>\u2019 in the \u2018<strong>Printers<\/strong>\u2019 list.<\/li>\n<li>Now, choose \u2018<strong>Reset printing system<\/strong>\u2019 to finish the reset.<\/li>\n<li>Restart your HP printer.<\/li>\n<li>Tap the \u2018<strong>Add<\/strong>\u2019 button.<\/li>\n<li>Choose your printer and click \u2018<strong>Add<\/strong>.\u2019<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">1.
