WIA Driver missing or accidentally deleted

I have a Asus K42JY laptop and a HP PSC 1510 All-In-One printer. I think I accidentally deleted the WIA driver when I tried to uninstall the HP program.

When I tried to use the Scanner Action, this pop up occur:





I tried installing the software back, downloaded from HP website (I don't have the CD) and still it wasn't fixed.

Plus, I can't even use the scan button on the printer. It only blink a few times on the Power Button and nothing happened.

Really need help on this, Thanks!!!

 

Did you download the driver?

select your version of Windows.

If that doesn't work, have you tried restoring the computer to a date before the printer was installed?

 

So everything was OK until you tried to uninstall the HP software? Why did you do that?

 

plodr, I've already tried that and also went to the system restore and can't restore to that point.

Earthling, It's not really OK, the reason I uninstall it is because the Scan Button on the printer doesn't work, so I thought if I uninstall and install it again, this would be fix it instead worst thing happen. Not what I was expecting.

 

What version of Windows?

Did you disconnect the USB cable and follow these instructions to uninstall?

I am using Window 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 64 bit.
I've already check on the services, the WIA service is there and running (not sure if it is running as it shows started). This is why this thing is bugging me.

 

I guess I should try this again to see if this will fix it again.

 

If that doesn't work, try the HP Print and Scan Doctor

Hello guys, I did what plodr said. I uninstall everything and install it back again. Now I'm able to scan from the computer. But there's a last part where I need to install the device, I keep getting an error from there.

I think this part is the important part, which allow me to use the scan button on the printer.

 

To use the scan button on your printer, the HP software must be running. You will see a tray icon.
If it is not running, go to Programs then HP and start the Image Zone software.

 

Is it the Photosmart Essential 3.5?

 

No.
Download the user guide http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/...dlc=en&lc=en&os=4063&product=428800&sw_lang=&
and start reading on p 34. How to use the Scan Feature.

 

Ok, I have the HP Digital Imaging Monitor running but the scan button still not working.

 

Sorry, I'm out of ideas.
My two HP print/scan/copy units do not have a scan button on the printer. I have to scan through the computer so I can not troubleshoot any further.

If this is a new unit and the scan button on the printer never worked, have you considered that it might be a hardware problem?

 

Thanks anyway, I think I might have to buy a new laptop or a new printer.
