@Chaim7, Welcome to the HP Support Community!  

  

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding scanner! 

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.  

  

Generally, you can find the icon for an installed scanner in a few common locations:

Windows Devices and Printers:

  • Open the Control Panel.
  • Navigate to "Devices and Printers" or "Printers & Scanners."
  • Look for your scanner in the list of devices.

System Tray:

  • Check the system tray (bottom-right corner of the screen on Windows) for any scanner-related icons. Often, scanners or all-in-one printers have an icon here when they are correctly installed.

Scanner Software:

  • Check if scanner software was installed with your device. The installation should typically include a shortcut on your desktop or within the start menu.

Scanning Applications:

  • Open applications like "Fax and Scan" in Windows, which can manage and display available scanning devices.  

Hope this helps! 

Take care, and have an amazing day!
