Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have a envy 7645,  it has stopped scanning from the doc feeder.  It takes the page but shows nothing but a blank page. if I scan from the flat bed it work fine.  I looked in from the side and the light looks to be in the correct place.  I am sure this must be a mechanical problem.  any help would be great.
