Overview of the HP software
●The HP Director provides easy access to the software applications, default
settings, status, and on-screen help for your HP device. By using the HP
Director, you can scan various types of originals (pictures, slides, negatives,
and documents), make copies, view and print images or video clips, go to
the HP Shopping website, and update your HP software.
●The HP Image Zone provides tools for managing your still photos, scanned
images, and video clips. You can easily edit and print your images, use
them in various projects, and share them with family and friends.
●Using the HP Scanning software, you can scan items such as pictures,
slides, negatives, and documents, and then save them or send them to a
destination of your choice (such as a software application or file). The
software gives you the option of previewing images before the final scan
takes place. While previewing, you can adjust the image to achieve the final
effect that you want. The software also allows you to configure scan settings.
●The HP Copy software sends scanned images directly to your printer.
