Hello,

 

Hope you are well, for this one you can troubleshoot it by updating the printers firmware; you can click this link to download the file and run the installation :   firmware

Other option is making a factory reset on the printer from the setup menu > General > factory reset , please be aware factory reset will clean up the printers memory , so if its connected thru wifi, you may need to reconnect it after the reset is done. 

 

Regards,

I am an HP employee

Could you please suggest a solution for the same problem with an OfficeJet 5740 ?

Thank you

Thank you, However, it works when I use a different scanning app other than HP Smart. So the problem is not with my printer/scanner it is with your software.
