Common problems HP Solution Center not working : Adobe Flash Player Error and Unable to scan
We would like to share some of the most frequently asked questions about HP Solution Center not working : Adobe Flash Player Error and Unable to Scan.

HP Envy Photo 7855
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I'm using the HP Smart App to scan images but it only gives me the option to save as jpeg or pdf at a max dpi of 600. With my previous Photosmart I didn't use the app just installed the basic driver and I could scan in at up to 1200 (maybe 2400 can't remember) and save as different image formats.

 

Is this a limitation of the HP Smart App and if so should I just install the drivers for my Envy Photo 7855 and uninstall the HP Smart App.

@zwilson, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

If you want to save the scanned files in higher resolution and utilize other scanning features, you will have to install the full-feature printer driver.

 

Click here to download the HP Full-feature driver.

Once downloaded, make sure to run the file to start the installation and follow the on-screen instructions.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
