Hi,
Since january '21, the print software is out of order. I think this is due to the end of Adobe Flash., so now we use ALL-IN-One HP smart.
Unfortunately, it is now impossible to clean up the printer's heads, nor to connect it to WiFi...
How could I get back to the same functionnalities as before please ?

Welcome to the HP support community.
Adobe has permanently disabled the Flash Player as of 12-Jan-2021, and as the HP Solution Center software is based on Flash, it may not work as expected.
As of now, there is no option to clean up the printer's heads.
However,
Here are two other compatible scanning apps, which can be used to scan your photo or document:
-
HP Scan Extended: You can Download-Save-Install > HP Scan Extended
-
If the link above does not work, copy and paste the ftp address below into your browser: https://ftp.hp.com/pub/scanners/HPScanExt/HPScanExt.msi
-
Or--
-
HP Scan and Capture: You can download and Install HP Scan and Capture app from Microsoft store. Here is the link: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store
For more information on how to use this app, refer: https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c04675206
NOTE: You must have the HP printer driver software installed on the computer to use these apps. If you did not uninstall HP Printer driver software, then you should have it already.
OPTIONAL: Add HP Scan Extended shortcut to Taskbar / Send to Desktop / Pin to Start
-
Open File Explorer > Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\HP\HP Scan Extended\bin
-
Right-Click exe > Select Pin to Taskbar / Send to Desktop / Pin to Start
HP Scan Extended features include (and are not limited to): Single, Multiple scans, Image and PDF scans, Email as PDF / JPEG, Source selection, Page Size choices include Auto-Detect (extracts image / document boundary). May include OCR (Save as Editable Text).
I hope that helps.
To thank me for my efforts to help you, please mark my post as an accepted solution so that it benefits several others.
Cheers.
