My 8610 scans to pictures folder and I can't change it to desktop

[Garantos]

All the settings in the Mac scan folder and the HP Office Jet Pro software are set to scan to desktop but it always scans to the pictures folders.  I am initiating the scan from the computer. Does anyone have a solution.  Thanks.
