Hi
I need some help with the result of my scanning.
When I tried to scan a picture that I have drawn, it scanned in the whole picture, but when it is done, it devides the picture into 6 pieces. It says 6/6, but I want it to be 1/1. How do I change this, so that the result will be a whole picture and not just parts of it?
devided in 6/6 and not in 1/1?? Why?
Can anyone help me, so I can get a proper picture out of it?
Thanks
Sroxa

Welcome to the HP Community --
Perhaps you left the "Detect Edges" at the default rather than setting the edges to "Full" to grab the scanned content.
What?
"Detect Edges" sometimes does something odd and picks one element of the scanned content to set the boundaries.
NOTE
There is a "Detect Edges" setting in both the Document and the Photo / Image setup.
Sample - HP Smart - Windows - Preset = Document
Illustration - Detect Edges Step 2
