Scan an image
You can start a scan from your computer or from the HP All-in-One. This section explains
how to scan from the control panel of the HP All-in-One only.
To use the scan features, the HP All-in-One and computer must be connected and turned
on. The HP Photosmart Software (Windows) or HP Photosmart Mac Software (Mac) must
also be installed and running on your computer prior to scanning.
? On a Windows computer, look for the HP Digital Imaging Monitor icon in the
Windows system tray (at the lower right side of the screen, near the time) to verify
the software is running.
Note Closing the HP Digital Imaging Monitor icon in the Windows system
tray can cause the HP All-in-One to lose some of its scan functionality. If this
happens, you can restore full functionality by restarting your computer or by
starting the HP Photosmart Software.
? On a Mac, the software is always running.
Tip You can use the HP Photosmart Software (Windows) or HP Photosmart Mac
Software (Mac) to scan images, including panorama images. Using this software,
you can also edit, print, and even share your scanned images. For more
information, see the onscreen Help that came with the HP All-in-One.

I have the same problem..it will only scan 2 pics and then after that it says no memory card when there is one in there.
Will not scan. It responds in every other way, except for scanning. Says there is no network connection. Yet I have no problem printing from Word, Power Point, etc., and I have no problem copying. WTF?
Same problem - prints but does not scan, shows software problem, but all the software is original.
