My printer is working but my scanner is not; when I click in Hardware properties it says “ currently this hardware device is not connected to the computer (code 45). To fix problem, reconnect this hardware device to the computer. How do I reconnect??? Thanks!!

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

 

Hows is the Printer connected to your Computer? If it's via the USB cable, unplug and plug it back.

 

Let me know if this helps.

 

If the information I've provided was helpful, give us some reinforcement by clicking the "Accept as solution" button, that'll help us and others see that we've got the answers!

 

Thanks!

Have a great day!
