Hi Guys 🙂
How do I run a scan using legal paper from my HP4620 fax printer so that I can reduce it to letter size photo copy. I was working it well then all of sudden it said something about ORC being lost?
Thanks - HoJo

Thank you for joining HP Forums.
I'll be glad to help you 🙂
As I understand the proto copy from legal size to letter size,
Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:
Have you attempted to resize the image during the copy?
While you respond to that, here's what you need to do:
Copy documents, photos, and ID cards and learn about available copy settings on the printer control panel.
-
Load the document or photo on the scanner glass or in the automatic document feeder (ADF), depending on your printer type and features.
CAUTION:
Do not load photos in the ADF to prevent damage to the photos and the printer.
-
Touch Copy, Copy Document, or Copy Photo on the printer control panel, and then change any available basic settings as needed.
-
Touch Settings or the gear icon
to view advanced copy settings.
NOTE:
You might need to scroll down the control panel screen to access all settings. Available settings vary by printer model.
-
2-Sided Copying: Copy on both sides of the paper. Depending on the model, the menu is typically available under the Document copy settings. Either touch On, select the box next to the setting, or select an available option from the drop-down menu.
-
ID Copy: Prints both sides of an identification card or driver's license on a one-sided copy. The printer prompts you to flip the ID card over to complete the copy job.
-
Size or Resize: Change the size of the copy. Options can include a list of presets, custom sizes between 25 and 400 percent of the original size, Fit to Page, and an Actual Size setting to make a borderless copy.
-
Paper Size: Select the paper size you are making the copies on, or select Automatic to let the printer detect the paper loaded in the tray.
-
Paper Type: Select the type of plain or photo paper you are making the copies on. If the incorrect paper type is selected, this might result in slow copy speeds.
-
Tray Selection: Select the paper input tray with the paper you are using for your copies.
-
Quality: Select an available copy quality level.
-
Lighter/Darker: If the original is faded or too saturated, make the copy lighter or darker.
-
Enhancements: Select the type of item you are copying to improve quality, such as sharpening text and image edges or improving faded colors in photos.
-
HP Copy Fix: Automatic copy quality and skew adjustment tool.
-
Collate: Turn the feature on or off for multi-page copies.
-
Binding Margin or Margin Shift: Touch On to copy pages with a margin shifted to the left side of the page.
-
Save Current Settings or Set as New Defaults: Retains the selected settings for future copy jobs.
-
Restore Factory Defaults: Restores all copy settings to their original defaults.
-
-
Depending on the printer, touch Start, or return to the main Copy screen by touching Back
, and then touch Start Black, Start Color, or OKto start the copy job.
