List of Scanners is Wrong

When attempting to attach a document to a transaction using the scanner on my printer, Quicken brings up 5 Scanners in the "Select Source" window. The problem is that I only have one printer/scanner. Where are the other scanners that are listed coming from; i.e., how is this list being generated? See attached screenshot. Note: The last scanner displayed is the actual name of the only printer that I have installed.

    The list comes from your Windows settings. Did you previously own those other devices?

    I think it may be an HP thing, showing all possible drivers for the hardware device. I have one HP printer/scanner, and it shows two devices for scanning. Either one works.

    Thanks for your responses.

    No, I only own (and have only owned) one HP printer/scanner since I purchased a new computer with Window 11 installed and the new printer.

    Windows only shows the one HP printer. Quicken shows 5!

    I think there must be an error with how Quicken populates the list??
