ENVY 5540
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi,

 

I've been using my ENVY 5540 to scan a few images, but it's having some issues saving the images after scanning them. They don't always end up in the targeted folder, or any other folder. I've tried several things like restarting the printer, or even rebooting my system, but it still occasionally, seemingly at random, refuses to save them. Any ideas?

 

Thanks.

What scanning software are you using?  What is the Save to Folder location?

HP Recommended

I'm using the HP AIO Scanner. The targeted folder is one on my 😧 drive where I save all my images.

 

I also can't seem to figure out how to adjust the dimensions of the images. It seems to just default to 9924 x 14028, no matter what I do.

 

Thanks.
