Follow the steps below to scan using HP Smart App:

Scan items using your printer, and then save them, print them, or share them via email.

  1. Place the item you want to scan on the scanner glass or in the automatic document feeder (ADF) tray.

  2. Tap a Scan tile.

    NOTE: 

    On iOS devices, select the Scanner option.

     

    The Scanner option selected for scan type

  3. Tap the Settings icon  to select the input source, color or black and white, and resolution.

  4. Tap Scan.

  5. For multi-page scans, tap the Add Pages icon , and then repeat these steps with another item.

You can also scan using your mobile device camera, for more detailed instructions on using the features refer to the document HP Printers - Using the HP Smart App (Android, Apple iOS)
