I Need to use the double sided scanning function of this printer but can't seem to find any option that allows me to double sided scan?

The LCD Screen doesnt seem to have a double sided scan option (I had heard about that) but from other users I have heard double sided scan from the computer via app should work? Is there a specific app I need to use for that - if so which one or what needs to be actvated for the double sided scanning function to appear in the 'HP Scan' App?

 

I have already successfully actvated double sided printing and copying so it must be poosible with this printer.

Hi,

A such can be done from the HP Scan software, should be located under Start > All Apps > HP.

From the HP Scan software you may set two sided scanning.

 

If you fail to find such an option you may install HP Scan Extended:

 

Select Save as PDF and press the More > option.

Set Scan Sides as Booklet and press OK.

Now press Scan to complete te scan job, you may press the disk icon near the shortcut title to save the settings as defaults.

Thanks for that. I downloaded HP Scan Extended and that solved the issue.
