There are lots of scan options, many of which depend on
- The Operating System / version (not provided)
- The method you are using (on the printer or using printer software on the computer)
The basics are all explained in the how-to documents:
How to > Scan >
- How to Scan (Mac)
- How to Scan (Windows)
- Using the HP Embedded Web Server (EWS)
- Using the HP Smart App (Android, Apple iOS)
HP Scan and Capture from Windows Store (Requires Windows 8 or higher)
Software for the printer is in category Software, Drivers, and Firmware
You need printer software installed on either a Windows or Mac computer to use many of the features.
The User Guide can help you learn about the printer, too.
Printer Specifications explain the Media (kind of paper), the Paper Sizes, and other details - "what the printer can do"
There are how-to videos at the bottom of several of the categories. For example, find "how to install" help at the bottom of the Software and Drivers page.
