If you have updated to Catalina I found a way to go around this. Turn your printer scanner on. Ignore your printer scanner from now on except if it goes on sleep. Go to Apple preferences and click on printer then click on HPScanner click on open scanner and your item will scan you have two choices you can either do a screenshot by putting a rectangle around the picture or you can put rectangles around what you want to scan and hit scan. The scan will go to your desktop or wherever you have it set to go. It will work and it's actually better. Funny how when things don't work if you really work and try to find out was a way around it you find something that's even better than you had before. No downloads no worry of viruses it's great!
