Hello kclark40,
Welcome to the HP Forums! I understand your concerns. Since you are unable to use your Fax and Scan capabilities, please uninstall the printers software. Follow these steps:
Please uninstall the software by following this HP document here.
Next, install the full feature software from the HP website here. Choose your correct model number and operating system.
Once the full feature software is installed you should have your scanning and fax capabilities back.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
