Have you tried powering the scanner off and on? Re-installing the drivers? Did you install anything before getting the message? What operating system are you uxing?

What software do you use? HP has very fragile drivers and I can recommend to try WIA version of the driver. It is more stable usually.

Can you provide some justification for that statement? I've never had a problem with HP scan drivers either for stand alone scanners or All-In-One printers.
