Scan an image
You can start a scan from your computer or from the HP All-in-One. This section
explains how to scan from the control panel of the HP All-in-One only.
To use the scan features, the HP All-in-One and computer must be connected and
turned on. The HP Photosmart Software (Windows) or HP Photosmart Mac Software
(Mac) must also be installed and running on your computer prior to scanning.
●
On a Windows computer, look for the
HP Digital Imaging Monitor
icon in the
Windows system tray (at the lower right side of the screen, near the time) to verify
the software is running.
Note
Closing the
HP Digital Imaging Monitor
icon in the Windows
system tray can cause the HP All-in-One to lose some of its scan
functionality and result in the
No Connection
error message. If this
happens, you can restore full functionality by restarting your computer or
by starting the HP Photosmart Software.
●
On a Mac, the software is always running.
Tip
You can use the HP Photosmart Software (Windows) or HP Photosmart
Mac Software (Mac) to scan images, including panorama images. Using this
software, you can also edit, print, and even share your scanned images. For
more information, see the onscreen Help that came with the HP All-in-One.
