Thanks but still did not work.
I called the HP Support Desk and they helped me solve the problem.
This is what they had me do:
1) downloaded the latest Software from HP websitefor the 8600 Plus (did not use the disk)
2) downloaded the latest HPPrintDrive from the Apple website: HPPrinterDriver2.16.1
3) changed my IP address
4) installed the software from the HP website
5) installed the HPPrintDriver from the Apple webiste
6) Enabled Scan to Computer from the HP Utility window
Scan now works from my printer!!
