Not according to their website:

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Enhancements

Adds Windows Vista support <<------
Adds 64-bit support

Step 2: Does your system meet the following?

Operating system(s): Microsoft Windows Vista, Microsoft Windows
Vista (64-bit)

Download file size: 2.76M

System Requirements

Recommended: Uninstall any previous software/driver for your scanner.

Sorry that URL did not work for you but you can either paste the two
lines into the address box or locate your printer and its files on the
HP website which is what I did.

On my system that long URL works if you click on the second line rather
than on the first.

Either way if you have not tried that driver I suggest you do -- I
don't know where you saw that it is only for VISTA 64.

Do please pay attention to the installation instructions there,
especially:

Connect the scanner to the PC after installing the driver.

since a lot of people, including me have not done it this way round and
it either fails or gets unnecessarily complicated.
