HP 7800 series: ADF

[110340]

When I scan, the ADF does not take in the document, but it does work when I print. It was working until I had to restore the printer network settings and reinstall the printer.

Some of the places to check to make sure the Source is set...

Using Webscan?

If Webscan is set to use the flatbed, set it to use the ADF.

Webscan – located in the Embedded Web Server (EWS) – No additional software

NOTE:  Webscan feature  is not available on Laser printers

If the printer is on the network,

If the EWS feature is available on your printer,

• Open your favorite browser > type / enter Printer IP address into URL / Address bar
• Tab Settings > Security > Administrator Settings > make sure Webscan is checked / enabled
• Click Apply to save any changes

Next

• Tab Scan > Webscan 
• Set up Webscan the way you want it - for example, set the Source to ADF - Scan a test document using Webscan

Examples  - Webscan - Enable and Settings
