I have a HP Laser Jet 1536dnf MFP running Windows 7 on my HP laptop. My printer works great and my scanning used to work great up until the last month. Then the scanning gives me a communication error. I have uninstalled & installed several times and still the same error. When I run the HP scan doctor, it gives the error with the Windows (WIA). Yet I connected a different laptop to the network, installed all the drivers and the scanning worked just fine. So the printer works. My laptop also continues to print no problem.
As well, I have an HP Officejet Pro 8500A and the printing and scanning with the same laptop that I am having an issue with works just fine with the OfficeJet.
I tried the solution above of checking the 3 services identified (RPC, Shell HW Detection & WIA) and they are all started & set to automatic.
No clue what to do at this point.
Any help is much appreciated

Hi T-K
Here is a url explaining Wia. (Windows Image Acquistion)
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms630368(v=vs.85).aspx
I would recommend to run the Microsoft Fix It Tool to see if it will resolve your issue.

If you need more assistance just let me know.
