1. Load the originals.
2. Do one of the following:
• Press the Scan (
) button on the scanner front panel to start scanning with the
assigned software (and profile, if appropriate).
• On the computer, open the scanning software, and then select the ISIS or TWAIN
data source. Select the appropriate settings, and then initiate a scan.
TIP: To reduce paper jams, use scan settings that specify the actual dimensions
of the pages that you are scanning.
TIP: If you select duplex scanning or copying and you load the originals into the
automatic document feeder (ADF), the scanner processes both sides of a two-
sided original at the same time.
Associate a quick start button with scanning software
The scanner includes two quick start buttons, Scan ( ) and Copy ( ). You can
associate any button-aware scanning software with each of these buttons.
To associate a quick start button with scanning software, follow these steps:
1. Press the Tools (
) button on the scanner front panel to open the HP Scanner Tools
Utility. Click the Buttons tab.
2. In the Program to Start drop-down list for a button, select the scanning software that
you want this button to start.
3. Optionally, if you selected the HP Smart Document Scan Software, in the Profile
drop-down list, select a profile.
If you do not select a profile, pressing the button starts the HP Smart Document Scan
Software so that you can choose the scan settings each time that you start a new
scan.
NOTE: If you change the name of a profile that is assigned to a quick start button,
update the button information in the HP Scanner Tools Utility.
For information about HP Smart Document Scan Software profiles, see the HP Smart
Document Scan Software Help.
Scan from scanning software
You can scan an image or document directly into a software program if the program is
ISIS or TWAIN compliant. Generally, the program is compliant if it has a menu option
such as Acquire, Scan, Import New Object, or Insert. If you are unsure whether the
program is compliant or what the option is, see the documentation for that program.
