I had the proper drivers for the HP 8300. However, every few scans, either the software would lock up, or the scanner would stop scanning about 1/2 way through.
I got VueScan and have never had a problem since.
Hello!
I just brought a HP 300 because all of the comments here. But I got the same problem as Kaptain here but using VueScan do the same thing
I can only scan once. The first time it scan 50% of the image, I wait like 30 seconds then the rest show. Then when I want to scan another image it simply stop arounf 50% again and bug and I must restart the computer.
I got the latest drivers from the HP site. Anybody got an idea here Thanks!
Had similar issues with mine. I got my scanner working on my computer with VueSan, but it was buggy. Ended up uninstalling VueScan and the stock Windows 8 software started working, it worked good for a couple weeks then it started freezing up again. I gave up and just use my laptop with Vista now. Never had an issue after that.
