Every time I try to scan a document to my computer the printer says it is scanning when it is actually not doing anything. the little screen will say 'scanning...' but then there is no noise and nothing comes up on my computer. it stays on 'scanning....' until i press cancel because it is not working.

Here is the solution I found on the Kodak ESP 5 Support Center web page. Hope it helps or else maybe just visit the web page and browse it to see if you can find the solution to your specific problem.
Question
:
How do I scan from my all-in-one printer using MICROSOFT WINDOWS
Imaging Acquisition (WIA) Drivers on a computer running WINDOWS VISTA
Operating System?
Answer
:
For computers running WINDOWS VISTA Operating System:
During scanning, the progress is displayed.
When the scan is complete, the file is displayed in the Windows Fax and Scan window, along with a preview of the file.

Get a damp soft cloth and clean the scanner glass. If that doesn't resolve the issue there is a chance the scanning unit itself is damaged.
Let me know.
Cheers,

Try to install the latest version of Printer software from www.kodak.com/go/downloads on your computer. then open the kodak home center software and click on scan pictures. Adjust the settings and you are ready to go. download the user manual from www.kodak.com/go/manuals. KEEP ME POSTED.

Did you install the full software driver for the all-in-one? The drivers are here: http://www.kodak.com/global/mul/service/downloads/DownloadLookup.jhtml?pq-path=9103/12666/12667&product=EKN034524
Next try a new USB cable and plugging the unit into a different port. If you use a print server or USB hub, try connecting directly to the computer. Scanners need bi-directional communication with the computer and thus are likely to have issues even if the printer doesn't.
Can the scanning software on the computer initiate the scan? (That is in the full software package. Alternatively Vista came with Paint and File> Import from Camera or Scanner > New Scan.)
I hope this helps.
