Fix Scanner Failure Message on HP Officejet 4500 printer

After buying $50 worth of ink, my HP Officejet 4500 printer threw up a "Scanner Failure" error, rendering it useless. I took it out back to "fix it", but then decided to fix it. Basically, I had to remove the cover, the glass and then lift up the scanner bar and plop it back down on the track. Here are the visuals of that process.

  1. Four hours later, and a growing hatred of HP, and you solved it for me!
