Now, my scanner worked this morning but four and a half hours later, ZILCH.
I searched online for an answer and thought of checking for an update….and found this one. Please check if it is turned on and connected, or try again later.” BULL.

It seems to be working just fine one day, then the next time I NEED to scan something, it pops up THIS message: "HP Officejet Pro 8610 is currently unavailable. I’ve had my HP “do everything” super printer for a couple of years now - going on 3 actually but ever since I had to get a new lap top and switch from a MacBook Pro to a MacBook Air, well, the scanner is just totally FICKLE. This is a productivity time saver! Kudos !!
It will save me a lot of work back when I used to scan to a USB drive, switch it to my computer, and search HP_Scan directory and hope my document appeared. Thanks HP for a great, AND FREE, scan App. I went to my computer' scan folder and there each document had been saved to a separate jpeg. Delighted, I stacked several documents on my printers from feed and each document was scanned. The Easy Scan App reappeared and when the scan completed and displayed in the App, I clicked on "Send" which opened a save window where I selected a Folder for storing all future scans. Once completed, a document that I had previously placed on my printer started being scanned. I downloaded HP Easy Scan to my new iMac Pro and once the download completed and the App opened, I went to devices on my computer and clicked on my office 'HP OfficeJet Pro 8600' Icon - immediately my computer started downloading a new print driver file.
