General tab options

If you install a new software program on your computer after you install the HP scanning software, update the scanner button destinations using the General tab options. An update ensures that the scanner buttons can send to supported new destinations on your computer. In order to update the destinations, your scanner must be attached to the computer before you press Update.

In the General tab, click Update. The software automatically searches your computer for supported new programs and updates the scanner button destinations. When the update is complete, click OK.

Note: If your scanner has a Select Destination button next to the Scan To button, not all destinations appear in the scanner’s destination list. For example, printers, e-mail programs, and saving to a file are not included. The list is also limited to the first 18 destinations found by the HP scanning software. You can access additional destinations through the HP Precisionscan Pro software. See "To send to a program" on page 61 for more information.
