Common problems HP Solution Center not working : Adobe Flash Player Error and Unable to scan
We would like to share some of the most frequently asked questions about HP Solution Center not working : Adobe Flash Player Error and Unable to Scan.

HP OfficeJet Pro 8720
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

With my old HP printer there was an option to print 2 up, 4 up, etc of a photo or document on a single landscape page.  I can't find the way to do that on this 8720.  Just generally, the processes available on this unit seem weak to me.  It takes a lot of digging to find anything. Is there a one stop place for a manual?  Thanks.

I looked at the details on the drivers.  It appears the install used the HP drivers.  I looked at the manual but came away with a solution.  I'll figure out a different way to get what I need.  Thanks for your time.

Which driver are you using? The HP dedicated driver or a generic microsoft driver. Generally the Microsoft drivers lack a lot of advanced features that HP has available.

Whatever was called for at 123.hp.com/setup is what was loaded.  I assume the CD that came with it from HP would have installed the HP drivers and not the MS versions.  Is there any way to determine which drivers I'm using?
