Should work out just fine unless it decides to sqwauk about the drivers being
older, in that case you would have to uninstall the presently installed drivers
first. If the scanner gets connected after the drivers are installed, you will most
likely need to uninstall the present drivers first. If that's the case:

Create a new folder and extract the files from the .zip file into the newly created
folder.
Shut down and disconnect the scanner USB cable.
Boot to Safe Mode and uninstall Any/All scanjet scanner devices listed in Device
Manager.
In DM right click on the device and click Uninstall in the popup menu.
Close out back to the desktop when finished uninstalling any/all scanjet devices.
Open either MyComputer or Explorer.

Delete the contents of:

c:\documents and settings\your username folder\local settings\temp

c:\windows\temp

c:\prefetch

Close out of MyComputer or Explorer and reboot.

Follow the proper steps to install/connect the drivers/scanner when back at your
normal desktop.
When using the scanner/camera install wizard click the Next in the first window.
Click the Have Disk button.
Click the Browse button and navigate to the folder you extracted the files into.
Select the HPscan.inf file and click the Open button.
Click the OK button to start installing the drivers.
