If you download the CORPORATE windows drivers for your HP printer you 
get it without the bloatware.

To be honest I have not tried to use it to scan with my ethernet 
attached multifunction printer, but it does print well.

Most of the problems I have found with HP printers on networks is due to 
them having floating IP addresses (randomly assigned by DHCP servers) 
and if you give them a fixed IP address they work fine.

Windows also supports printing over HTTP, so you can easily connect your 
windows system to CUPS.
