HP ENVY 4520 All-in-One Printer

I am trying to scan from my printer (HP Envy 4520 All in One printer)  into my HP Smart app  and manage the document i'm trying to scan through the app on my mobile phone. I used to be able to do this, now for some reason it stopped working.  I can still print, I am connected on the same network. The printer shows  a green check mark (as if its connected) but says "some features unavailable"  and when I hit the "Printer scan" option  an error messages pops up that says "Feature unavailable, This feature is not supported by the selected printer. Connect to a different printer to use this feature."

 

I have reset the printer by "Restore network settings"

I have unplugged the printer from the wall , waited 1 minute 

I have deleted and re-added the printer to HP smart app 

O have cleared the HP Smart App cache  and re-added the printer.....and still nothing

 

I can print but I can't scan.
