Recently purchased a new printer/scanner (HP Office Jet Pro 6978) but can't find the scanning app. Printing is good. How do I scan documents?

You can use the HP Smart app, HP Scan and Capture app, or the built-in scanning feature in Windows Fax and Scan to scan documents from your HP OfficeJet Pro 6978 printer. The HP Smart app is available for download from the Microsoft Store, and the HP Scan and Capture app can be downloaded from the Microsoft website. The Windows Fax and Scan feature is included in Microsoft Windows and can be found in the Start menu.
