scan documents from hp1536dnf printer and options are bmf jpg tpfnng but no pdf option. Do i require an update driver for printer to obtain this capability.

HP Recommended

Maybe your 1536nf is not same software as "HP Photosmart 6510 Series: HP Printer Assistant".

 

My choices are:

 

Photo to File

Photo to E-mail

Document to File (The one this thread is about, 'multiple pages')

Document to E-mail

Photo to TIF

Document to TIF

 

.pdf is the only document type choice allowed for 6510 Series '6515'.

 

After you figure out how to get Document Scans Vs. image Scans, look for a VERY TINY  " +  " button to add additional pages "After" you scan the first one and are presented with options "Back, Save, Done".

 

I assume even image scans have the exact same TINY " + " Add Files Button.

 

* Do not forget to turn on wireless to automatically get Firmware Update you 'may' need, to get the Printer Scanning (without mouse) to allow "Multiple page pdf's".

 

NOW - That said, please tell us what choices you see from your Printer's Control Panel?

 

My 6515 shows:

Photo to File

Photo to E-mail

Document to File

Document to E-mail.

 

May God bless you and yours 😉

How do you scan multiple pages into one pdf document? Is there any limit to the capacity of the task?

HP Recommended

Thanks to ScottBrown2011 I have at last worked out the last ingredient in the secret formula.  Why do HP not put the method for scanning multiple pages into a single pdf file into their user guide, just look at how many people they have frustrated!  Poor customer service by HP.

 

I am using a Photosmart 7520 and for anyone just entering the debate the steps are:

 

1. In advanced Settings go to the File tab and remove the tick against "Create a separate file for each scanned page"

 

In the Select a shortcut, adjust settings dialogue box

2. Keep dpi at 300 or lower

3. Make sure Scan Preview is ticked on the select scan page

4. Click in the miniscule + box under the scan preview box after each page is scanned

 

Simples!   And so intuitive!
