My HP6700 prints fine but when I try to scan it says HP6700 not found.

I opened HP scan to scan with my HP6700 and get a error box statung that the HP Officejet 6700 is not found.

 

The printer is new and I have not tried to scan before.

I am running WIndow 7.  The printer is in wireless mode.

 

Since installing the printer I have upgraded to Windows 7 from Windows Vista.

The HOP dialog recognized this and apparently adjusted the software.

The printer prints OK.

 

What can I do.
