HP Smart Tank Plus 551 Wireless All-in-One

I have been scanning and it suddenly gave me a "scaning is currently unavailable"  I unplugged, waited 60 seconds and plugged in and it started to scan.  I scan one paper.  Then I tried to scan another and I got "scanning is currently unavailable.  I unpluggged waited and it started again.

I've done this several times.  Now it won't go at all.
