Envy 4500
Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite

Hello there, How do I email a scan directly from my printer, I can´t find the app Scan to Email for my Envy 4500 All in One Printer.

 

I bought this printer because in the Product Specification Page it says: 

Digital sending features

Scan to email [via printer control app]; From software: Scan to file; Scan to email

 

Thx

Hello again,

 

The Envy 5530, Envy 5640, Envy 5660, and Envy 7640 all support Scan to Email from a stand-alone printer. Of course, the printer must be connected wirelessly to a network and the network must have access to the Internet. These models also support scanning to the PC provided that you install software that comes with the product.

 

I have a Photosmart 7520 and Officejet 8040 with the stand-alone Scan to Email feature and I personally love it. I find it more convenient to email files directly from the printer.

Hello mvalero,

 

The digital sending features you mentioned are for a traditional scan to email model -- scan from the pritner to the PC. Scan to email from a printer doesn't require software, so any mention of software means you're using a PC in the flow.

 

I have a Envy 4500 at my desk the printer does not support scan to email directly from the pritner. HP does have a number of models that do support scan to email from the pritner, this just isn't one of 'em.

 

Please let me know if you have any other questions.
