For scanning, you'll have to install SANE.

The scan button on the device might work if you setup autostart for hp-systray.(requires the KStatusNotifierItem extension on gnome) and install xsane (or change the scan settings in the hp device manager / hp-toolbox)

Edit: You should probably add the following to your /etc/pacman.conf to prevent hplip updates from overwriting your changes:

NoUpgrade   = usr/share/hplip/data/models/models.dat

Perfect, you are my hero

to scan from terminal use for example :

scanimage --format=png --output-file test.png --progress
