I am trying to scan to computer which I have done in the past many times but now my printer screen says I need to go to 123.hp.com/setup to download software and drivers. I have done that and still receiving the same message. I have done troubleshooting via HP Print and Scan Doctor but after going through the process and select "fix scanning", I get green checkmarks until I get to 'Device Status' which is red.
I can scan manually but not 'scan to computer'
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi @Finhead,
I'd like to help!
Let's try and uninstall the printer software from the root level on your PC and install the full feature printer software.
--->In Windows, search for and open Programs and Features.
--->Select your HP printer.
--->Select Uninstall.
--->In Windows, search for and open Devices and Printers.
--->In the Devices and Printers window look for your HP Printer. If you see it listed, right-click on it and choose "Delete" or "Remove Device.”
--->Open up the run command with the "Windows Key + R" key combo.
--->Type printui.exe /s and click OK.
--->Click on the Drivers tab.
--->Look for HP Printer driver. If you see it click on it and click remove at the bottom.
--->Select OK.
--->Select Apply and OK on the Print Server Properties windows.
--->Close Devices and Printers.
And then reinstall the printer full-featured drivers from software and drivers page
Keep me posted.
