How do I install a scanner driver for a printer?

Hi Everyone,

I've got an HP Laserjet 1220 with the scanner attachment. It installs fine
in Vista Enterprise RTM as a printer, but not as a scanner.

However, I noticed that there is also a Vista scanner driver for the 1220
that includes both the printer and scanner drivers for the 1220.

Is there any way that I can force the printer to use the scanner version of
the Vista driver when the driver wizard will only let me install a printer
driver for this device?

In other words, how can I reach the generic driver wizard that allows me to
select the device type so that I can tell vista that this is a scanner
instead of a printer?

Thanks for your help.
