Hi,

Thanks for using the HP Forums.

First, do ensure that you have the FULL feature software installed.

This relevant resource will show you how it's done:

Installing the Software for HP Officejet Pro 8730

After that,  this relevant resource will show you how to scan multiple pages and have it in on one document:

HP Officejet Pro 8710 / 8720 /8730 /8740 : Copy & Scan a 2 sided document using the ADF

If you documents are 1 sided, simply select 1 seided instead of 2 sided. (but your printer model supports 2 sided copy and scan!)

Hope that helps!

The link provided related to 2-sided scanning.  I need to figure out how to scan an 8 page document to one 8-page pdf rather than 8 one-page pdf's.  I believe I need to enable the "merge" function but do not know how to do this.

Hi,

From the HP Scan Software :

Example:

1. Select Page Sides a 1-sided (since you have a 8 pages document)

2. Select Document Feeder if Loaded (since it'll be more convenient than to scan 1 page at a time with the Flatbed scan glass)

3. Place document into the automatic document feeder and Scan.

4. If there are more documents to scan, click "+", else Save.  It should be saved as a PDF document containing 8 pages.

If it is still saving into 8 files.  Then please watch this resource on how to disable the "Save as Individual files"

HP Officejet Pro 8710/8720/8730/ 6960 /6970 series : Scan & save as individual PDF files

Save to a designated folder – can change the default scan name as well.

Hope that helps!
