    On this kind of device it’s very hard to find the problem. What I can suggest id you can download HP Scan Diagnostic Utility and solve the common scanning problem, connection problem like


    1. USB connection
    2. Network connection working correctly
    3. Driver Checks
    4. Windows WIA Scan Checks
    5. HP Twain Scan Checks
    6. Problems in Device Manager
    7. Checks registries
    8. Checks that all HP software components
    9. Checks HP Digital Imaging Monitor (DIM)


    All that sort of problem tries this and let me know the result

    I don’t thinks the solution for that is listed on the support actually it hard to get solution for this I have even tried HP solution center but the result was useless its showing HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 A909g Series is ready but when I clicked the start Scan document it’s just stuck and one window open which actually don’t do any thing. Now I have already reinstalled the software but it’s not helping. I am guess either the software CD that I got with the scanner is corrupted which I also think is impossible or it’s not compatible with my computer I am using Dell pc which is running on Windows XP. This happen even when I enter anything on the setting same thing happen it freeze any idea

    Did you checked is your device is working fine of not maybe there is a hardware issue as HP Scan Diagnostic Utility shows its Front Panel problem it better you consult to the with the technician and get it fixed as you scanner is new you can enjoy the benefit of warranty . trying to find the solution by your self will only delay the cure more .
