That shouldn't be necessary.

CUPS doesn't handle scanners (even All-In-One models). If your printer
works, CUPS is doing all it can do. Scanning on Linux is handled by
SANE:
# My NixOS configuration, adapt to your system:
hardware.sane = {
extraBackends = with pkgs; [ hplip ];
snapshot = true;
};
Then install & try scanning with something like `simple-scan` (nice
and simple) or `xsane` (insanely not so).
