Scanning was not working after installing the new OS so I enabled it from the HP Utility. Worked once. Now when I go to enable scan to computer the option is grayed out. I've downloaded new software, unplugged everything and rebooted to no avail.

Hi,
From the Applications folder delete any exisitng HP Scan or HP Easy Scan app.
Delete HP Scan or HP Easy Scan by moving it to trash, then empty the trash.

Next install the latest HP Easy Scan below, it will be installed within the Applications folder:

If you experience any further issues, ensure the latest software is installed by following HP Easy Start below:
