Common problems HP Solution Center not working : Adobe Flash Player Error and Unable to scan
We would like to share some of the most frequently asked questions about HP Solution Center not working : Adobe Flash Player Error and Unable to Scan.
HP Recommended
Officejet 6700 Premium
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

The scan to computer app has disappeared from my laptop. The HP Printer Assistant no longer has the Scan option. I downloaded the App Scan and Capture, but it doesn't prompt me to rotate the pages on the ADF for double sided printing. I can add documents by pressing the "+" option, but only to the end. It doesn't put them in order.

 

I have selected the double sided printing option, I have selected the ADF and I have selected multi-page pdf.

 

My printer is connected via a network. It won't let me select Scan to computer on the printer's control panel.

Can you please help?

Thanks
