In order to scan I believe you need the app HP Smart. That is fine for me but when my family need to scan (from their own devices, can they do so without the app or do they need to log into my account or can they have their own account to use hp smart? I do t really want them using my account that is effectively the master account for my printers.

Hi,

Thanks for using the HP Support Community.

 

The printer can support multiple devices; those just need to have HP Smart installed.  They can create their own account to use the printer - no issues.

 

Alternatively, try the HP FULL software solution if it's a Win 10 PC.  These resources will be useful:
