Scanning overview

Note Macintosh users, see the HP Image Zone software on-screen help for information about scanning procedures.

Tip High resolution is usually only necessary when attempting to increase the size of very small images (for instance, scanning a stamp-sized image, or scanning 35 mm negatives or color slides and enlarging them to A4 size). In most cases, optimal scanning can be achieved by adjusting the resolution of the scan to a resolution appropriate for the intended use of the image. Scanning at a resolution higher than necessary only increases your file size, slows down printing, and in some cases makes the image impossible to print on a particular printer. For more information, open the HP Director software, select your scanner in the Select Device list, click Help, and in the HP Image Zone software on-screen help, see the HP Scanjet scanner on-screen help.

You can start scanning in one of three ways:

Scan from the scanner's front panel buttons

The front panel buttons on the scanner provide shortcuts to frequently used scanning functions, such as scanning pictures, slides, negatives, and documents. Descriptions for using the front panel buttons are located in this manual (see Front panel and accessories overview).

Scan from the HP Director

Scan from the HP Director software when you want more control of your scan, such as when you want to preview the image before the final scan.
