Windows 7 Drivers So That This Device Is Recognized In The Network?

I would like to use Windows Fax and Windows Live Photo to scan. There are no twain scanners recognized (I have G95) because the HP Jet 170x printer server is not recognized iin the Windows 7 network. I have the IP address 192.168.11.99, device name, and MAC address but cannnot seem to get it shown. How is this done? Also I can use my browser with thee IP address and access all the Scan funtions for the G95 and then just save the jpeg, tiff or pdf from my browser, I've done it sevverral times. Isn't there a way to expose this functionallity as a network scanner driver that Windows Fax and Windows Live Photo could use? Also I have two panel buttons on the G95 "Scan" and Scan to" Currently the names of two old computers are coming up, is there a way to change that to our two current computers. That woulld be verry useful! Thanks. Rick
