Good Morning!~

I am having a tough time trying to find an update for my scanner with the above OS.  Any ideas? 

 

Thanks!  Rob

 

 

This is the message I receive now:

 

Check with the developer to make sure HP Scan works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and OS X.

Hi,

The scanner is supported with OS X 10.8 or earlier versions, I afraid it is incomaptible with any later OS X version

 

You may try the 3rd party VueScan application, this will likely work on later OS X versions too with the HP Software installed:

Its a shame with all this new technology that HP doesn't keep up with it.
