Scanning, Faxing & Copying

I have been searching for a solution for the HP Laserjet 3055 scanner won't work with windows 10 64 bit (32bit no issues). This works for me after months of trying. My apologies if I posted it the wrong place and you could help to post to the right place as a solution after testing it. 

Tested on Windows 10 new installation, Internet connected, UPD drivers not loaded,

For scanner to work you must get these 3 driver loaded correctly (make sure all 64bit)

HP EWS 3055, HP laserjet 3055 scanner, dot4.msi

Download these drivers to your computer

HP laserjet 3055 Scanner 1.1.1.1 (drivers for HP Scan Devices) 64 bit

https://www.driverscape.com/download/hp-laserjet-3055-scanner

HP EWS 3055 1.0.0.12

https://www.driverscape.com/download/hp-ews-3055   (make sure 64bit version)

HP Laserjet 3055  version 7.0.0.29 (Make sure you are downloading

http://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=HP+Laserjet+3055

Dot4.msi drivers (64 bit) version 7.0.0.29

Go to Device manager

Under Other Devices - HP EWS 

Sometimes HP EWS will appear under Universal Serial Bus Controllers.

Select HP EWS and update driver

Browse my computer  for drivers

Search for location of the drivers in this location

(Your location will be the folder your downloaded this driver (HP EWS 3055 1.0.0.12 64bit)

 It should say “ HP EWS 3055” and not “HP EWS”  after updating the driver.

HP Scan Device ( Other devices,  ignore base system devices)

Hp Scan Device  (After loading HP EWS drivers, Hp Scan Devices appeared

HP laserjet 3055 Scanner 1.1.1.1 (drivers for HP Scan Devices) 64bit.

https://www.driverscape.com/download/hp-laserjet-3055-scanner

Do the same update drivers, select drivers manually.

Install the Dot4.msi drivers.  (Dot4.msi drivers (64 bit) version 7.0.0.29)

Reboot (if necessary)

Test with Windows Fax and Scan.

Other scanner software use WIA mode. (eg NAP2)

Run update on the HP laserjet 3055 PCL Class Drivers  or install HP Laserjet 3055  version 7.0.0.29

(manual duplexing work with HP laserjet 7.0.0.29.)
