How to Scan in Windows 7 without Using HP Software

Re install HP PSC 1410v All-in-One Printer

Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows7 operating systems provide a basic set of scanning drivers, also referred to as Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) drivers that you can use as an alternative to scan a document when you cannot scan using the HP drivers. You might choose to use these scanning drivers for one of the following reasons:

• Your product released before Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows7, and HP has not released drivers that support scanning for your product.
• You have not installed the available HP software that includes scanning.
• You are troubleshooting a scanning problem and trying to identify the source of the problem.

First, choose your Windows operating system from the following options: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02459304&tmp_task=useCategory&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&site=null&key=null&product=441240
