HP Officetjet 6500 E709N, Scan option does not work [Solved by using webscan option]


When you use the the printer scan buttons, the printer's LCD display will show: "select computer" and an arrow pointing to the right, and when you press the right rocker switch to "select the computer", nothing happens.
I tried uninstall and reinstall of thee full software package which is over 300MB and includes a lot of things I did not find useful and the result on the printer's display was the same.

The best thing is , in order to get your scanning working again you don't need additional software.
You only need to enable the webscan option:

Check your IP address of the printer, in my case it was 192.168.1.22 and you add that into your browser and you will be presented a webpage that shows on the left side the option to use Webscan:
