Help re HP Printer and windows update.

I recently did the latest windows update, and noticed today that my scanner
no longer works. It is a HP Scan jet 4300C. I tried reloading the software,
and all the usual stuff ---rebooting, checking cables etc... All is OK, but
when I click on scanner, I get this message:

Sorry , Scanner could not be initiated, ( scanner not found )

Anyone here know how to solve this?
