    What model number scanner is it?
    What operating system are you using?
    Have you checked HP's site for drivers?
    Have you tried using Image Capture?

    VueScan does not support all scanners. And there are not many scanners that do have drivers for OS X. One of our complaints

    I have an old HP IIcx and its supported in VueScan. I suspect that if my OLD HP is supported then most HP's should work with VueScan.

    According to vueScan, printers that have internal parallel-USB converters are not supported, Your HP 4200c would be one (not supported). the scanner that replaced your 4200c, (the 3500)is supported, but drivers don't seem to be very complete for 10.2. According to HP website, the only scanner that is directly supported with OS X 10.2 with real HP drivers is the 5400 series, although some others are 'under development'
