How do I scan

Not able to scan Printer HP6432

Welcome to the HP Community Forum.

"How" and "not able" might be describing two different things.

=============================================

"How", for example, might mean that you lack the instructions or setup to scan.

In the case of this type of printer, you most certainly need some form of software or an application to configure the job.

What you use -- and how you set up the job -- depends on the content you are scanning, your network, your Operating System / version, the device you are using.  "Device" might be a Computer running a supported version of Windows or MacOS, a tablet, or a phone running a supported version of Android or iOS.

=============================================

"Not able" might mean that your printer and your device are not connected to the same network.

In the case of this printer, remote printing is also perhaps supported -- like the "how", the setup depends on the content, the device, the application, and the configuration.
