Until the recent HP software update, I was able to scan directly to the computer using the control panel on the computer.  Now when I press "Scan to Computer" I get "No Computer Found" error.   When I run the HP Print and Scan Doctor, it tells me that everything is ok.  This is an important feature for me.  Any help is appreciated!!

Hi Sandy,  Thanks for your reply, but I do not have a HP Printer Assistant on my Windows 10 computer and don't know how to get it.  I have been using HP Smart, which seems to be the standard software install on your HP 8710 webpage.  It does not seem to have a Scan to Computer setting option.  I installed HP Support Assistant, but that didn't do anything.  I am still not able to scan from my printer. Thanks,  Jack
