How Do You Scan on a Kodak Printer?

After upgrading Windows 8 to Windows 10, my Kodak ESP5250 printer is not scanning anything, infact displaying error message “100-2106” on the screen when I scan anything. When I was using Windows 8 then there was no scanning issues. This problem has arise only after upgrading operating system. Suggest me easiest way to scan documents on Kodak printer!
