how do i change my scan settings

[jesshurst]

I have just got a new computer and my printer is now only scanning my documents as a whole. I want each indiviual sheet i scan to be saved as an individual scan. Hope this makes sense.

Open the Printer Assistant / Solution Center shortcut on Desktop (Printer icon on the Desktop named for your printer)

Open Scan a Document or Photo  (wording varies)

Select Document to File / Save as PDF

Select Scan Size >> example: Letter (equivalent to 8.5 X 11”) or Entire Scan Area
