Even if disabled in the task manager start-up tab, might still be configured to auto-run if you look at services.msc
Also I use NAPS2 but with a different brand of printer, it basically does everything I need without having to open the proprietary utilities that aren't quick to use.
Still need to download the driver for your printer for certain features though
yea they could see if there is just a basic driver to download and install instead of the software suite but when mom needs to scan something and you have to install that again youll wish youd just left everything.
