You can use the printer’s control panel to scan documents, photos, and other originals and send them to a variety of destinations, such as a folder on a computer. You can also scan these originals from your computer using either the HP software provided with the printer or TWAIN-compliant or WIA-compliant programs.

When scanning documents, you can use the HP software to scan documents into a format that you can search, copy, paste, and edit.

NOTE: The HP scanning software does not support TWAIN and WIA scanning on computers running Mac OS X.

NOTE: Some scan functions are only available after you install the HP recommended software.
