Welcome to the HP User Community.

Yes, you can scan multiple photos from the printer flatbed and save them as individual files.

If you have not done so,

Download - save - install the Full Feature Software / full driver printer software

Installation package - Information and Download

HP OfficeJet Pro 6960 All-in-One Print and Scan Driver and Accessories 

HP Scan - part of the full driver printer software - can scan / detect the boundaries of the photos / save as individual files.

Place the photos face down on the flatbed - separate each photo enough that the "detect" option can find the boundaries - for example, separate each photo from another by about 1/2 to 1 inch.

Set the Page Size = Detect Photos

Open the settings in More >

Check each category and adjust the settings - Be sure to check / adjust the settings in More > Destination

Click OK to save any changes and exit a particular sub-menu

When ready, Scan the content

Example - HP Scan - Windows - Main Menu - Save as JPEG
