Trying to set up a HP ENVY Pro 6400 to scan directly to PC without having to do all the sign up

I would like to be able to just put docs in and scan without having to sign up for an account somewhere.

@Bernard42is correct - HP Smart Mobile requires that you create and sign into the app with your HP Account.

If you are running a supported version of Windows,

Install the Full Feature Software / full driver printer software

• HP Full Feature Software / Full Driver printer software - supports printing and scanning from the web, printing in in other software and programs (for example, Word), and provides access to the full range of Printing Preferences / Shortcuts.  The full driver adds at least two shortcuts to the Desktop:  Printer Assistant and HP Scan.  If the printer model includes built-in Fax hardware, the software supports the setup and use of the Fax driver.  No Sign-in required.

====================================

The installation of the full driver adds at least two shortcuts to the Desktop:  

Printer Assistant 

HP Scan

>>> Open the Printer Assistant > tab Scan > Manage Scan to Computer > Enable

Example - HP Full Feature Software - Installed in Programs and Features
