For the moment, please use Image Capture for Scanning.

 

Details

 

Scanning is not yet fully supported in Catalina.

 

Read the information in the support document: 

HP Printers - HP Easy Scan Is Not Currently Supported in macOS Catalina.

 

Essentially:

Image Capture (also) supports scanning documents - details are included in Step #5

 

HP is aware of the issue and will release a fix when it is available.
