Hi!
I see a lot of questions about changing from Glasbed to ADF.
But the answers are only for one time use.
I want to change the default source to ADF, when starting a scan.
I did use WIN10 32 before, and had no problems, ADF were set as default.
But after upgrading to 64 bit, it is not possible to change the default.
How do I set ADF to be default??

Hi,
Thanks for using the HP Forums.
Under the HP Scan software, just select te Source to be "Use document feeder if loaded" and it will be the default. Example:

Hope that helps!

Hi, and thanks a lot for your reply.
However, this is the same solution, I have seen in many other replies.
But it does not help.
If I scan another document, its back to the flat glass bed as default.
I can not change it so ADF works as default.

Hi there!
First solution did't work.
Fantastic program, that EXT program.
It solved the problem, BUT caused another one 🙂
Sorry for not being completely happy.
I did find page 2 under ajustments, and changed the destination folder, where to put the output from the scan.
I do have a folder for all my scannings.
But starting the program again, its back to"documents" under my user in C:
Is it possible to have a default destination folder in this program??
Thanks again
Kim
