Printer and all its functions worked fine, but I had to replace my hard disk. I ran the Install program from HP. Printer will print now, but won't scan. When I try to scan (Through the HP Solution icon) It appears to start working, but then just keeps on appearing to work without actually doing so. The little round, spinning symbol spins and spins but never does anything else.
As I said, it worked fine before I changed Hard Disk but doesn't now. Any ideas??
Thank you.

Yes, thank you, it's working now.
Far as I could tell, the FULL software is exactly what I installed the first time. Maybe it was because I didn't have the printer unplugged from computer the first time. That's the only thing I did differently this time.
Well, whatever the reason, I'm glad it's working, and I appreciate your help.
