Scanner drivers HP LJ CM3530fs MFP

[Jacobi50]

Some time ago, I bought an HP Color LaserJet CM3530 fs MFP printer. Unfortunately, the seller did not have and did not include the original driver discs. I installed the drivers from the HP website for the printer and the printer works perfectly in Windows and Linux, but I cannot scan to the computer - the computer does not see it. The feeder scanner works when copying. How to make it work with the computer? Are any drivers needed? The universal print driver does not solve the problem. My local HP service center is unable to help me. Does anyone have installation discs with drivers for the HP Color LaserJet CM3530 fs MFP printer?

As an enterprise model, this is designed primarily to scan to folder or scan to email. It will not scan over a usb connection. If you can locate the HP Enterprise Network Twain driver that should work as well. I have not tested this model using the HP Universal Scan Software but that may work as well, over a network connection.
