HP Photosmart C4580 All-in-One Printer
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I don't use my C4580 a lot but just found it won't scan.  Copy is OK.  Print is OK.  Scan from the printer to PC says "Scan Error".  Scan from PC says "No scanner detected". Print and Scan Doctor says "full software solution is not installed" but then the installer page has no "Download" button for the software.  I cannot understand instructions to install "Smart" or "eprint".  Could it be that a recent Windows 10 upgrade has killed the scanner?  I see a  running "Windows Image Aquisition" service which I don't remember before.  Is there a work-around.  Printer is on LAN (Wifi). PC is a Dell Laptop.
