Try a different software that provides editing tools.

HP Photo Creations

The free version of the software offers simple editing tools to enhance your prints.

• Select the size of print you want >
• Browse your computer and open the folder in which the photo is stored >
• Once you "add photos" and have the photo image displayed, click on the image; the photo editing tools will display for you to select.

Hi esroglady.

HP Photo Creations imports images in JPG and PNG formats. To add a scanned document to HP Photo Creations:

1. Select the size you want in the Prints menu (e.g., 8.5x11).
2. Confirm the size.
3. Click the Print my Own button.
4. Click the Add Photos button and browse to the image you just scanned. 

To adjust contrast, click an imported image to open its toolbar, then click the Brightness and Contrast button. When you're done, you can print, save, or share the file.

Hope this helps,
