@esprangers,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community,

 

Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue

 

Check if WIA Service is Running:

  • Press Win + R, type services.msc, and hit Enter.
  • Scroll down to Windows Image Acquisition (WIA).
  • If it's not running, right-click and start it.
  • If it's running, right-click, select Restart, and set Startup Type to Automatic.

Update or reinstall the WIA driver:

  • Press Win + X → Device Manager.
  • Expand Imaging Devices or Print Queues.
  • Find HP OfficeJet Pro 9120e, right-click it, and select Update driver → Search automatically.
  • If no update is found, go to HP’s official support website and download the latest driver package for your printer.

Install the WIA Driver:

I hope these steps help resolve the issue
