Welcome to HP forums, I see that you are getting scanning issues on the printer.

  • Did you check the Windows Image Acquisition settings?

If not, check Windows Image Acquisition settings.

  1. In Windows, search for and open View local services.

  2. In the Services window, scroll down the list and find Windows Image Acquisition (WIA).

  3. Look at the Status and Startup Type values.

    • If the status is Started or Running and the Startup Type is Automatic, WIA is running correctly. Skip to the next step.

      Making sure WIA Status is Running, and Startup Type is Automatic

    • If the status is Disabled or no status displays, right-click Windows Image Acquisition (WIA), click Properties, click the General tab, select Automatic from the Startup type dropdown menu, and then click Start.

      If the Start button is grayed out, go back to the Services menu, make sure Remote Procedure Call, Shell Hardware Detection, RPC Endpoint Mapper, and DCOM Server Process Launcher are running and set as Automatic, and then start WIA.

  4. Try to scan

Thanks SandyTechy20, I already checked all possible solutions, including WIA service, even check with Scan Dr, but no luck, uninstall reinstall software tried even in different PC still no luck, have no idea what to do else except to take it to service center plus i believe warrenty is not valid anymore, do you know any service center in Chicago, let me know plus the cost estimation to see if it is worth it or to get new one.
