I have to agree with Dr K. running a photosmart 2610 multi-function- it took 6 months of digging before I found a 1 sentence disclaimer "Must be physically plugged into the computer to access all features of 2610.. Last time I tried to restore scanner (HP) functionality to my multi-use (family) computer -photosmart set up, the HP site wanted me to reload its drivers every time we changed a user! Still looking for the best solution and limping along. i am going to Check out Vue Scan. What about an OCR Program?
