Create scan profiles that use third-party scanning software

If you have scanning software that you want to use with your scanner, you can create profiles that use your software.

To create a third-party scan profile, follow these steps:

1.Turn on the scanner and start the HP Scanner Tools Utility.

2.Click the Profiles tab.

3.In the Other application profiles area, click Create.

4.Complete the fields in the Create Other Application dialog box.

Application: Enter the complete path and filename of the scanning software you want to use, or click Browse to locate and select it.

Title: Enter a name for this profile as you want it to display in the scanner LCD list. You can enter up to 32 characters (16 for double-byte languages such as Chinese and Korean).

Details: Enter a description of up to 24 characters (12 for double-byte languages).

5.Command Line for Simplex Button and Command Line for Duplex Button: If your scanning application supports specific command line parameters for scanning, enter them here.

6.When you are done, click OK.

TIP: If you later want to edit or delete the third-party profile you created, click either Edit or Delete in the Other application profiles area on the Profiles tab.

Import and export HP Smart Document Scan Profiles

Profiles can be exported into and imported from an XML file so that administrators can set up profiles for a workgroup, users can transfer their profiles from one machine to another, and users can share custom profiles with each other.

Scan extra long documents

By default, the HP Smart Document Scan Software accepts a stack of originals up to 216

mmx 356 mm (8.5 in x 14 in). You can choose to scan single pages up to 216 mm x 864 mm (8.5 in x 34 in).

NOTE: If the scanner is set to scan long pages and a page jams, up to 864 mm (34 in) of document pages can be wrinkled as a result of the jam. Therefore, select scan profiles that specify long pages only when you are scanning pages longer than 356 mm (14 in).
