I'm sorry, but this has be baffled.
My HP Envy 7645 is connected wirelessly, was working fine until I upgraded to HP Smart app on our computers. Now, every computer can print but scanning is broken.
The app can find the printer and when I hit "Scan" on the computer, the printer will start scanning. However, the preview of the scanned document does not show up and the HP Smart app just goes back to the scan screen. Very weird.
I've uninstalled and re-installed the HP App
I've removed and reinstalled the print drivers from the Printer Preferences
tried connecting the printer directly by Ethernet and by USB
Nothing seems to work
