Product: HP OfficeJet 5255 All-in-One Printer

the Accepted Solution starts by saying "use Image Capture in your Applications folder"

WHERE is that on my Win10 HP Laptop?

HOW do I scan [flatbed or feeder] multiple pages into a single PDF file?

This is really frustrating.

Original Content

 

If I understand what you are referring to >> Image Capture is for MacOS .

 

If you have not done so,

Install the Full Feature Software / full printer printer software.

 

Details Page - Driver - For your Printer

>>> Full Feature Software - Web Pack Installation Package - Information and Download <<<

HP OfficeJet 5200 All-in-One Print and Scan Driver and Accessories 

After the software is installed, Restart the computer and log in.

 

The full software included HP Scan software.

Use HP Scan to scan PDF pages into one file.

 

Example - Windows - HP Scan - Scan PDF > More > Destination

9025_HP_Scan_Menu_PDF_More_Destination_89025_HP_Scan_Menu_PDF_More_Destination_8

 

What else?

Installing the full driver provides the foundation to install and use other scan software / applications.

For example

 

HP Scan and Capture

Available from the Microsoft Store (formally Windows Store) - Requires Windows 8 or higher
