Product: HP 8600
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)
Scanner worked fine for years until yesterday.
Now when I try to scan from PC it gives me message that Printer HP8600 can not be found.
I have done everything I can think of. Re installed Printer. Re started PC.
It will scan from the printer and send to the PC but not scan from PC.
Please give me any suggestions you may have.
THANKS
bj
