Re: Issues with HP Printer after upgrading to Vista

Mary Lou ... are you using the Vista software for the HP 6310? That should
have the option to scan from 'HP Solution Center' in the HP program. The
drivers in the Windows Vista operating system do not support button press
functionality on the printer.

Here's the HP site for the Vista software download:

Take a look also at the 'Solve a problem', 'Scanner' link on the left hand
side of the above page. 'Needing a network' is BS ... it's a USB printer
and will work as such but, since you're now on a wireless network take a
look at the 'Wireless & Network' link in the above 'Solve a Problem' link
above. If all else fails, you can temporarily use 'MS Paint' ... File, From
Scanner or Camera', 'Scan'.
