I am so annoyed. I used to be able to scan over 200 DPI off my Mac. Now the only choice is 200DPI and this doesn't work. I've already committed hours to this issue. Please help.

What operating system are you using?

 

Make sure you've downloaded the driver for your printer. It sounds like you're using a generic driver that may not be detecting your printer's scanning resolution options.

I am on Mac Mojave and I am scanning from the driver.

I am using HP Easy Scan.

Have you tried connecting to the printer in multiple ways? You may be able to scan in different resolutions depending on if you're going over USB or a network. If that makes a difference it might be worth removing the printer settings from your computer and adding it back as it if were a new printer.
