Hi, thanks for the reply. I've already uninstalled and reinstalled several times, updated everything and followed the instructions you've provided but none of them seem to work 😞

Can you please include a screenshot of the Add Printer dialog, once clicking the plus sign? this may allow some better understanding of any possible cause.

Yes, that was my exact intention, thanks!

Please try unplugging the USB cable and restart your Mac.

 

*Be aware that resetting the printer system will remove any existing print queue and reset any customized driver settings.

Click the Apple menu, and then click System Preferences .
Select Printers & Scanners.
Right-click (or Ctrl + click) your product in the Printers list in the left panel, and then click Reset printing system .
Click OK to confirm the reset.
Type your user Name and Password .
Click OK . The printing system resets.

 

Restart the printer and check if you may see any difference, You should see a scan tab under printers & Scanners too.

 

if there is still no change, also ensure your Mac is up to date by clicking the Apple icon, select About this Mac and then press Software Update.
Click Store on the top menu bar, click Reload Page, click Update All if any updated are available.

May you see any difference?,

Great to see the scanner is now working @owlie0418!

 

Surely not a genius :generic:, maybe experienced.

 

Cheers, and please keep safe.
