Answer 1

If you are trying to make your HP Scanjet 5300c work on Windows 7, you may contact HP support and see if they provide such driver.

If you are looking at developing a C# app to interact with scanners, you can check out TWAIN interface . Here is an article that might help. (I work for the company.)

Answer 2

Use the TWAIN API. NuGet package here: http://nuget.org/packages/NTwain/
