Welcome to the HP Community --

 

So little information to go on..

Here are some general tips...

 

How to Copy

 Make copies with an HP printer

 

---------------------------------------------------

 

If your printer supports it, change the Copy Defaults in EWS

 

Open your Browser > Type / enter the Printer IP address into URL / Address bar

Tab Copy > Settings > Default SettingsCopy Defaults

 

EWS_9025_Copy_Defaults_6EWS_9025_Copy_Defaults_6

 

---------------------------------------------------

 

If your printer does not support changing the Copy options on the printer, for example, you have a printer without a printer control panel (or the settings are just missing),

then

Scan the content instead.

 

HP Document - How to Scan

 HP Printers - How to Scan (Windows, Mac, Mobile) | HP® Customer Support

 

Example...

Scan the content instead using (for example) HP Smart (if supported).

After the content is scanned but before saving,

Select Edit > Adjust

The Adjust edit set controls hue, saturation, brightness and other settings.

 

Example - HP Smart - Windows - Scan > Edit sets

HP_Smart_Win_Scan_Edit_Image_Set_1HP_Smart_Win_Scan_Edit_Image_Set_1
