Hi@Caskets2go, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

Assumed that you have installed the FULL feature software.  If not, the following resource will help you :

http://123.hp.com/us/en/

Key in your printer model, Operating System, and download & install the FULL feature software.

 

How to Scan to Computer

Once you have installed the software:

1. Click on the Printer Icon (on your desktop) and it will bring up the HP Printer Assistant.
2. Under the Scan menu, there is a “Manage Scan to Computer”, click on that.
3. Make sure that you “Enable” Scan to Computer. Also make sure the tab “Automatically start Scan to Computer when I log on to Windows” is checked if you want to make this feature permanent. (the following video will show you how)

 

Keep me posted. Happy to help!
