Can someone please help me, I bought the HP Deskjet 2742e for scanning purposes using the document feeder. I have installed, printer is working great however it's not allowing me to scan using the document feeder. I keep downloading the full driver but still unable to use the document feeder. Can someone please tell me if I read this printer incorrectly and it will only scan using the glass? Thank you.
