Yes I have been using HP Smart app.  I using this app is how I found this problem as it scanned 11x17 but save it as 8.5x11.

Do you think I should uninstall it then try installing the software and after which re-install HP Smart app?

Hi @MartinVS ,

 

Thanks very much for your patience.

 

Can you try to uninstall and reinstall HP Smart app and try scanning again? Let us know the HP Smart version.

 

Thanks

Hi, Thanks for your continued assistance.  I uninstall HP Smart App and tried to install the printer app but still got white screen.  I reinstalled Smart App.  It is version 155.1.088.0

As noted earlier, I still have Scan & Capture App installed.  Could this be causing the installation problem?

Regards, Martin

Hi Martin,

 

We tried to scan on the 7740 printer and selected the "Entire Scan area" and was able to scan and save the 11x17" document.

Here's the settings used (note Scan Area)
