I am trying to install the software for hp 1350 psc all-in-one and it installs okay but I do not get the director and the scanner button does not work. My computer is using ME operating system, is this a problem.

The reason may be that the software is not installed properly. Did you try to scan from computer?

From computer you can try from Hp Director/ HP Solution Center or from scanner and camera wizard.

You need to have digital imaging monitor running in your system tray for the scan option to work from the printer.
Please install the software from the below link

Here are some diagnostics.
1. Go to control Panel and then to scanners & camera.
2. look for your scanner there.
3. if you find your scanner there try to scan from the wizard and you will be able to scan you docs.

To Reinstall the Hp Director....
1. first uninstall the HP director software using the removal utility located in your cd...

The uninstaller on the Internet is newer and works better than the one on the CD-ROM. Use this method only if the Internet version is not available. Follow the steps below to use the CD-ROM version only if you cannot get the regular uninstall to work correctly and cannot access the Internet:

1. Leave the USB cable disconnected from the all-in-one.
2. Insert the all-in-one CD-ROM into the computer. Cancel or close any installation windows that appear.
3. Right-click the Start button, and then click Explore . This will open Windows Explorer.
4. In the pane on the left, locate the CD-ROM drive letter that contains the all-in-one CD-ROM.
5. There are two different versions of the software for some of these models. Use the file path that pertains to your version of the all-in-one software.
   • Early versions of the HP Officejet 6100 and PSC 2100 and 2200 series: Double-click the file hposcr01.exe , located in the Drivers\Uninst\language (ENU for English, ESN for Spanish, FRA for French, or PTB for Portuguese) folder of the CD-ROM.
   • The newer software version: Double-click the file Cleanall.bat , which is located in the Util\CCC\Cleanup folder of the CD-ROM.
   ONCE THE SOFTWARE IS COMPLETELY REMOVED.RESTART THE PC AND TRY TO INSTALL THE HP DIRECTOR SOFTWARE FROM THE CD.

Scanner is not compatible with Vista...printing only

Look on your desktop for HP director ( could be another name but will say HP). If you don't see it on your desk, click start, all programs, HP or Hewlett Packard. Click on this and a box will open letting you choose how to scan, where to save it ect. If you have trouble with it you may need the update, here,

i cannot re-install my hp 1350 all in one scanner. i have uninstall and re-install the printer driver was unknown. how can that be possible even i dont have the cd that comes with it.

Perform a clean and "No bloated" installation of the hardware.
Uninstall ALL the HP printer software, disconnect the PSC and reboot the computer.
When windows finish to load, connect the PSC again, the new hardware wizard will show up, follow the instructions with the HP Installation disk in the drive.
IMPORTANT: When a silver sand glass show up in the screen, CANCEL the installation of the HP software (this is by clicking "CANCEL" button or by no accepting the license terms). This will install only the PSC Drivers and nothing else.
Use a TWAIN compatible program (Windows imaging, photoshop, paint shop pro) and try scanning again.
