I was having an issue with scanning a multi-page document through the ADF (they were showing up blank) so attempted to download the Easy Start/Easy Scan software to my mac. I made it all the way through the downloadng process, until the last screen where its now been stuck (not frozen), & pending  on "Loading" with a continusly spinning progress wheel for about 20m (screen shot below.) The continue button on the bottom right is greyed out/unable to be selected, but the back button is not.

 

What do I do to finish the instiallation and get to scanning my docs?  Thanks in advance!Screen Shot 2018-11-01 at 1.10.58 PM.png

Hi,

Did you already downloaded and installed the HP Essential Software and HP Easy Scan prior to reaching this screen?

 

Assuming you did, try clicking the red X icon to terminate the installation and the printer should already be installed.

 

If your printer is not listed under Printers & Scanners click the plus sign and select the listed printer, you should select your printer model within the Use drop-down menu.

 

From your Applications folder open HP Easy Scan and try scanning.
