I bought the HP 4215 printer and loaded the CD that can with it. When I try to Use the Scan option, it does not work. Am I missing the Scan Software?
Thank you,

The problem is with Windows Vista...it does not recognize the scan button when you touch it on the scanner. There are two ways around this:
Go to Programs / Windows Fax & Scan / Click new scan / click file and then click scan
OR
Go to Accessories / Paint / Cick File /click from scanner or camera / click scan
I think this link would help you out...

(manual for scanning a document) try this... if not try installing drivers again from the following link

If you get the message, "run or install software device" the problem is an incompatibility between Internet Explorer 7 and the HP Director software. Go to the HP software/driver site and get the update for the HP Director.

Mine sometimes scanned, sometimes refused to asking for a software device. Now the scan function absolutely stopped working.
I loaded the software also. it worked for a while, then stopped scanning.
