Many new innovations have come up in recent years with regards to HP and its range of printers. To help consumers fix their printer issues on their own, they have created several software utilities such as HP Control Center and HP Virtual Assistant. The latest software utility that HP has created is the HP Print and Scan Doctor.
The HP Print and Scan doctor is a free propriety software utility and is perfectly capable of quickly fixing any problems with your printer, be it printing or scanning problems. It troubleshoots issues such as missing or damaged drivers, connectivity problems, firewall problems, error messages when scanning, printer showing offline status, and stuck print jobs. This version works with Windows XP/7/8/10. The Mac2 OS unfortunately does not support this software. To get the HP Print and Scan Doctor, simply visit the official HP website and download the software.

In case your printer displays disruptions, then you have to try printing a document to verify that the connection works. The same checks will be done for the scanner.
The HP Print and Scan Doctor also checks ‘Windows WIA Scan’, ‘HP Twain Scan’, ‘Registry’, and ‘HP Scan’ and makes sure they are working properly.
