Hi @HavanaBub,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

To set "DIN A4" as the default page size for various functions on your HP printer, including using shortcuts, the printer screen, and scanning from the ADF, follow these steps:

A. Setting DIN A4 as Default Page Size for Shortcuts

  • On your HP printer, access the shortcuts menu either through the control panel or via the printer’s Embedded Web Server (EWS) if applicable.
  • On the Printer Screen:
    • Navigate to Shortcuts on the printer screen.
    • Select an existing shortcut you want to modify or create a new one.
  • Using EWS (if available):
    • Open a web browser and enter the printer’s IP address to access the EWS.
    • Go to Shortcuts or Preset Settings.
  • Edit the shortcut settings and look for Page Size or Paper Size options.
  • Select DIN A4 from the list of available sizes.
  • Save or apply the changes to the shortcut.

B. Setting DIN A4 as Default Page Size on the Printer Screen

  • On the printer’s control panel, access the main menu and go to Setup or Settings.
  • Look for an option like Paper Settings, Tray Settings, or Paper Handling.
  • Find the setting for Default Paper Size or Tray 1 Paper Size.
  • Select DIN A4 as the default paper size.
  • Save the changes and exit the menu.

C. Setting DIN A4 as Default Page Size for Scanning from the ADF

  • On the printer’s control panel, go to the Scan menu.
  • Look for settings related to the ADF (Automatic Document Feeder).
  • Find the option for Page Size or Paper Size and select DIN A4.
  • Save these settings so that they apply whenever you use the ADF for scanning.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
