Scan from the HP Solution Center

To start the HP Solution Center:

1.Do one of the following:

a.On the Windows desktop, double-click the HP Solution Center icon.

b.On the taskbar, click Start, point to Programs or All Programs, point to HP, and then click HP Solution Center.

2.If you have installed more than one HP device, click the tab for the scanner. The HP Solution Center shows only the functions, settings, and support options that are appropriate for the selected HP device.

Scan from other software programs

You can scan an image directly into one of your software programs if the program is TWAIN compliant. Generally, the program is compliant if it has a menu option such as Acquire, Scan, or Import New Object. If you are unsure whether the program is compliant or what the option is, see the documentation for that program.

Preview a scanned image

If you want to preview the scanned image, either begin the scan from the HP Solution Center, or click Show Preview in the What are you scanning? dialog box.

To change the button settings for the scanner so that the software always prompts you with a preview of the picture or document, see Change scan settings.
