HP Utility Quit Unexpectedly Error

Question

I can't scan from my HP Deskjet 3054 to my Mac running Mac OS X 10.7.5.  I can scan by laying the document on the glass if I start the scanning from my computer but even then I can't scan multiple pages from the paper loader.
When I click on Scan Settings in the HP Utility folder the HP utility quits unexpectedly.  I downloaded the latest full driver but when I try to download the fix for this error it says I have a higher version of the scan component already on my computer.

Hi richieleland, 
thanks for your post and welcome to the HP Forum. 
It might already be helpful if your repair disk permissions. You can do this from Disk Utility - First Aid tab, select your volume and then hit Repair Disk Permissions. 
Then restart the Mac and check if you can now open and work with HP Utility. If it still fails, try again installing the fix. But if thats not possible, you may download and install the HP Printer Driver Update 2.16.1 - either through Apple Software Update or if not found there, download from Apple website: HP Printer Drivers v.2.16.1 for OS X
Best regards,
Mandy
