Hi

 

  1. read here: https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/ish_6178365-6048693-16
  2. and here: https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03963938
  3. Press key combo "Windows Key + S" enter "service" > click on Service App

    > change the Startup type to Automatic for the following services

    • Shell Hardware Detection = ShellHWDetection
    • Print Spooler = Spooler
    • Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) = stisvc
  4. then only download: HP Universal Scan - Full Feature Software and Driver

If point 3) does not help, then install the complete SW.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
