Wendy; If you already did a rest, by unplugging and re plug, the scanner is probably pooched. Something you can try is to uninstall scanner and reinstall, to see if it there was a problem with the software or driver.
below are links to trouble shooting, software updates, forums etc. to deal with your problem.

Paper jam message shown when i scan from ADF , but scan from flatbed ok

Hello,

You can easily resolve this issue because its not a big issue.

Perform a Hard reset on the printer and make sure that the printer is connected directly to the wall outlet and not to the surge protector.

  1. Unplug all cable of printers.
  2. Remove USB cable, if present.
  3. Wait for 2,3 minutes and press and hold the power button for few second.
  4. after that unplug the printer and plug the all cable to printer.
  5. Turn on the printer and wait till warm period finish and the printer is idle.

Scanner stopped in the middle of a scan

Although I can not be sure without testing it, the most common problem with this type of issue is that the power supply adapter has failed. According to the manual (posted at http://bizsupport1.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c00215714/c00215714.pdf) this scanner has an external power adapter. Since you indicate that the scanners light does not come on, I would be inclined to believe that power adapter needs to be replaced. However, before you go and buy a new one, I would suggest you get the current adapter tested with a volt meter to determine if it is outputting the correct voltage and amperage.

If you discover that the power adapter has failed, you may be able to simply replace it in order to get the scanner up and running again. However please take note that depending on what part of the adapter circuit failed, its failure could possible have also damaged the scanner's internal circuits. However, if you find after testing that the adapter is outputting the correct voltage and amperage, then the problem would most likely be a scanner board circuitry failure.

Unable to scan using HP Scanjet 3200C in Win XP Pro

Hi Shantala,

HP advises that, on some systems, the scanner hardware may get into an error state that will keep the scanning software from finding the 3200c ScanJet. If your scanner still isn't found after installing this driver and software update, please follow the directions below:
  1. Unplug the power cable from the 3200c ScanJet.
  2. Unplug the parallel cable(s) from the 3200c ScanJet.
  3. Shut down the PC and wait for ten seconds.
  4. Plug in the power cable to the 3200c ScanJet.
  5. Plug in the parallel cable(s) to the 3200c ScanJet.
  6. Power your PC on.
If you still have the problem, uninstall the driver from device manager, and download and run this .exe file version of the driver instead.. and if necessary, repeat the above steps..
