I have an HP Officejet 6500A Plus, and when I try to scan, I get a message saying, "The scanner is currently in use.  Please wait until the current job is completed."  There are no documents on the glass, nor in the automatic feeder.  I have tried turning the printer off and on and unplugging it, but still getting the message.

Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.
