Are you asking "How" to scan using your older printer?

If yes...

1.  Install the latest available Full Feature Software for your printer.

Your Full Feature Software / full driver printer software installation package:

HP Deskjet F4200/F4224 All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Driver 

NOTE:  If the printer software shows installed but is not working,

Uninstall the printer software from Control Panel > icon view > Programs and Features

Restart the computer and log in

Reminder:  If using USB, disconnect the USB printer cable between the printer and the computer before installing software.  (Re)Connect the USB cable when instructed to do so near the end of the installation procedure.

Install a fresh copy of the Full Feature Software / Full Driver printer software

Restart the computer and log in

2.  Use HP Scan to scan one page at a time > Use "Add page" (+) for each additional page.

Direct HP Scan to save the content as a single document.

3.  Optional - ADD the HP Scan Extended Software to your installed Full Driver printer software.

If it works, HPSE is essentially a version of HP Scan that does add / support some nice features.

Scan to PDF and Scan to PDF include some of the same types of settings.

Open section More > for exact options.

HP Scan Extended can be a nice addition to your already installed printer software.

HP Scan Extended

• HPSE is a subset an older Full Feature Software suite. 
• HPSE features are very similar to the HP Scan Software released after 2015.
• Although HPSE appears to be a separate software, HPSE is dependent on the infrastructure provided by the Full Feature Software (full driver).  The Full Feature Software for your printer should be installed before installing and using HPSE.
  • OPTIONAL:  Add HP Scan Extended shortcut to Taskbar / Send to Desktop / Pin to Start

    • Right-Click HPScan.exe > Select Pin to Taskbar
