How do I enable "Scan to computer" in Windows 10?

Hi,

You have to start from your computer first:

    Double click printer icon on desktop,
    Select Manage Scan to Computer (depending on printer, this option may be on Scan tab),
    Click Enable -

You can start this automatically with Windows BUT you will get an arror message if you turn on the computer BEFORE the printer.

Regards.

Hi,

Thanks for using the HP Forums.  Apologies for jumping in.

Can you download and install the FULL feature printer software from HP for your operating system:

The following resource will help you :

Key in your printer model, Operating System and download & install the FULL feature software.

How to Scan to Computer

Once you have installed the software:

1. Click on the printer Icon (on your desktop) and it will bring up the HP Printer Assistant.
2. Under the Scan menu, there is a “Manage Scan to Computer”, click on that.
3. Make sure that you “Enable” Scan to Computer. Also make sure the tab “Automatically start Scan to Computer when I log on to Windows” is checked if you want to make this feature permanent. (the following video will show you how)
