Hey, so the same story, the printer was working after installing the drivers but scanner not working, tried all the solutions that I found online but none worked. Few answers in different forums suggested TWAIN SANE,  didn't work for me since I am on macOS 12.7.6. Also tried VueScan but didn't work. So I just kept trying in the state of utter perplexity, I was trying to brute force my way to find any solution that works and then at last I found NAPS2(v7.5.2) and it worked like a charm. After installing I did this - Choose Device>SANE Driver>Laser Jet M1005. There is a play button to start scanning, you might want to adjust paper size to suit your needs. So any of you poor souls who might stumbles upon this post and find it helpful, I want to say "NEVER GIVE UP".
