This might sound entirely nutz, but I had a problem with my HP
multi-function as it refused to scan. Drove me crazy, and when I opened
the lid to remove the document, the scan bar started moving and there
were a few click-click noises. You know, things that make you go "huh?".
Darn thing worked like a charm after that. Your mileage may vary, but
give that a whirl. Just open and close the lid and maybe that will reset
that busy you're getting. :) Ric
