Hi @seve_g,

Thanks for confirming your printer model.

Let's try a few more steps to resolve this.

Delete the existing folder path in the Embedded Web Server (EWS) and create it again. Firmware updates sometimes reset or alter how folder permissions are handled.

Now, ensure the shared folder has full read/write permissions for the user account the printer is using.

Update printer drivers 

Install the latest drivers for the OfficeJet Pro 8720 from HP’s support site to ensure compatibility with the new firmware.

Run HP Print and Scan Doctor 

This tool can detect and fix scan configuration issues caused by firmware changes.

I hope this helps

Take care and have an amazing day ahead! 🚀

Best regards,
