Can't scan. Keep getting error message that install is unsuccessful, error code 2753. The troubleshooter gets to Solution 2, #2 and Normal Startup was and is selected.

Hi @SRSM
Welcome to the HP Support Community. I understand you are not able to scan. I'd be happy to assist you.
Try making a standalone copy and check if that works. By this, we can conclude if this is a hardware or a driver issue.
Reset the printer
- With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
- Wait at least 60 seconds.
- Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer.
- Turn ON the printer, if it does not automatically turn on.
- Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you proceed.
Note: HP recommends connecting the printer directly to a wall outlet rather than a surge protector or a power strip.
