Google Drive app for Officejet does double sided scans on short edge

[Foggyethan]

I have the Google Drive App installed and set up. It works fine, excepting how slow it is. But it works.

Except that when I scan a double sided document to Google Drive, it uses the short edge, I'm guessing. Either way, even numbered pages appear upside down in the PDF. There is no option for long vs. short edge.

Is there a solution or workaround? Thanks!

Hello, @Foggyethan – Hope you are well 🙂

I understand that you are having issues while using the Google drive on your Officejet 8715 printer. I’m not sure about the 2-sided printing issue, but I believe assigning a public DNS for the printer might do good to increase the speed of the printer. Here are the steps:

• Obtain the IP address of the printer – You can touch the “wireless” icon on the printer control panel to get the IP address.
• Type the IP address on your web browser to obtain the printer EWS page on your computer.
• Go to "Network" tab - General - Select "Network protocols" - Select "Enable IPv4 only" (or similar) - Apply the settings.
• Go to the “Network” tab – Click on “Wireless (802.11) – Then click on “Network address (IPv4)
• Click on the radio button which says “Manual IP” and then click “Suggest a manual IP address” to give a manual IP address to your printer.
• Click on radio button which says “Manual DNS Server” and under manual preferred type 8.8.8.8 and under manual alternate type 8.8.4.4 (This is Google DNS server address)
• Restart the printer and the router once done and check.
