Scanner not found on HP6100 (6180)

How is your all-in-one printer connected to your Mac? Are you directly connected with USB? or a network connection through an ethernet hub or switch? Or, are you connecting wirelessly?
Do you have the current HP software installed for the version of OS X that you are using?

If you are using OS X 10.6 or higher - try downloading and installing Apple's latest update to the HP drivers: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907
 
In Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard," I believe you use the application "Image Capture" to scan from scanners and multi-function devices.

If I remember correctly, the included hp software for scanning will not work -- you need to use "Image Capture."

Someone slap me if I'm wrong. ;)
