That is part of the HP software for the all-in-one. You need to go to the HP site and download the current software for your printer and load it. One of the toolbox controls of the HP software is scan control.
That's right, if you have a HP all-in-one that that installed from the Vista drivers and not the HP software then the OCR software has not been installed.





Try the free OCR package from http://www.simpleocr.com/ to give you that function back.
i dont think there is a solution, this printer is pretty old and HP wont create a new driver for Vista (according to the interwebs)
