Scans but won't save. Hangs instead. Have to go to Task Manager to kill the san program.

 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 the software and drivers page 

Hope this helps!

I uninstalled and reinstalled the software as recommended. I was able to save scans a few times, but the problem has recurred. It scans fine, and I can see the scans on screen. But when I click on Save, the program hangs, and I have to go to Task Manager, which tells me "Program not responding." So the same problem, with no solution yet.
