Common problems HP Solution Center not working : Adobe Flash Player Error and Unable to scan

HP Officejet Pro 9016 specs say that it has 1200 dpi scanning hardware.

 

However, the HP scanning software does not allow me to set scanning resolution higher than 300dpi.

 

Is there anyway to bypass this limitation and scan at higher resolution using 9016?

Thanks.

Hi,

Change the Scan Source from Automatic Document Feeder (If Loaded) to Flatbed Glass within the HP Scan software, then higher resolutions up to 1200 PPI becomes available.

Thanks.  That worked.  Both in Scan Tool as well as the printer "display/key" pad.
