Scan direct to dropbox or Google Drive

[funeshah]

Hello,

I'm trying to scan directly from my printer to Google Drive or Dropbox.  Is this possible? I see Sharepoint as an option - however, I'm looking to do this directly to Google Drive or Dropbox.

Thanks,

[Dragon-Fur]

You might be able to do this using a Smart Shortcut.

HP Smart Shortcuts (formally Smart Tasks) for Windows and HP Smart Mobile

Where available, Smart Tasks can be configured for several print tasks.

• Print: Send a print job to your printer.
• Email: Send an email message or attachments.
• Save to: Save a file to a cloud storage account, such as Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive.

 HP Printers - HP Smart: Use Shortcuts

Side bar: 

Will it work?  Maybe...

Android is a bit less robust than is the Mobile app for iOS - iOS is less robust than iPADOS - all mobile apps are less robust than the HP Smart application for Windows / MacOS.

Example - HP Smart - Windows - Shortcuts - Edit (existing) Shortcut
