Overview of the HP software

The HP Director software provides easy access to the software applications, default settings, status, and on-screen help for your HP device. By using the HP Director software, you can scan various types of originals (pictures, slides, negatives, and documents), make copies, view and print images, go to the HP Shopping website, and update your HP software.

The HP Image Zone software 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 enables you to configure scan settings.

The HP Copy software sends scanned images directly to your printer.
