Scanner driver missing for hp 8500a officejet pro printer. This happened after the windows 10 anniversary update last year. Printer works fine but can't scan.

Hi,
Thanks for using the HP Forums. Apologies for juping in here.
Can you try this alternative scan solution:
HP Scan Extended
ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/scanners/HPScanExt/HPScanExt.msi
Once it's downloaded and installed, go to Start > All Programs > HP > HP Scan Extended > Run "HP Scan Extended"
Let us know if that works.
