Welcome to the HP English Community --

 

I might not understand the full context of your question.

 

HP Document - How to Scan

 HP Printers - How to Scan (Windows, Mac, Mobile) | HP® Customer Support

 

 

This printer includes an Automatic Document Feeder -

Following the rules for the size and type of paper supported by the ADF, the printer can scan one page after another.

 

 

User Guide – HP DeskJet 2800e HP DeskJet 4200e

Read Chapter 1

 

The printer ADF does not support automatic 2-sided scan.

The full driver printer software (for Windows) includes HP Scan software.

HP Scan has a setting for Page Sides to help the user scan front and back sides of a document.

The task is still manual - you have to scan first side(s), remove - rotate - replace stack and scan 2nd side(s).

The software does automatically re-order the pages.

 

This printer also supports HP Universal Scan software.

The software can be installed after the full driver or as a standalone program.

Universal Scan also includes a Page Sides setting plus other nice features.

 

What else?

 

Be Aware ---

Margins

 

DeskJet printers typically require a larger margin along the bottom edge.

If you rotate the print, the larger margin moves to the side.

 

 

Borderless PrintingNo
Print Margin Bottom (A4)12.7 mm
Print Margin Left (A4)3 mm
Print Margin Right (A4)3 mm
Print Margin Top (A4)3 mm

 

There is no software, firmware, or alignment that changes the larger margin requirement.

 

The solution to "chopped off" is to keep all data inside of 1/2 inch / 12.7mm on the bottom edge. 

 

This limitation includes all text, images, page numbers, footer information, cells, tables, lines, other notations, and all file types, too.

 

Create your original document with 12.7mm ( 1/2 inch ) margins.

 

 

Alternatively, and where it will work for you, Print the content as "Fit", "Shrink to Fit", or a percentage of 100% that will capture all the content on the page.
