Scanning & detecting more than one photo at a time

[Heddybell2211]

Hi - Since updating to Windows 11 - and having to use the HP Smart App, compared to HP Easy start with Windows 10.  The old system of scanning more than one pic at a time and all pics being detected seems to have gone?  Or am I missing something?  Thank you in advance.

Welcome to the HP Community --

Good news

The Full Feature Software is listed as supported and available for your Windows 11 computer.

and

HP Scan is (still) part of the full driver printer software -- HP scan can "Detect Photos" on the flatbed and save each photo as a separate file.

=======================

 - Windows -

HP Full Feature Software / Full Driver printer software - supports printing and scanning from the web, printing in in other software and programs (for example, Word), and provides access to the full range of Printing Preferences / Shortcuts.  The full driver adds at least two shortcuts to the Desktop: Printer Assistant and HP Scan. If the printer model includes built-in Fax hardware, the software supports the setup and use of the Fax driver. No Sign-in required.

Next,

If using a printer USB cable between the printer and the computer, disconnect the cable before installing the printer software.
