Hi,

Install and use HP Easy Scan below instead:

http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software12/HP_Quick_Start/osx/Installations/Essentials/hp-easy-scan-1_...

 

You may move the HP Scan application to the trash, it is incompatible with Sierra.

Hi ShlomiL,

 

I have installed from the link and have managed to scan and save for the first time since Macos update.  :OpenSmile:

Thanks for that.  I was having the same problem on Sierra.  The HP scan interface on Mac is a big step backwards from HP's scan interface for Windows.
