I am scanning a package of which some pages are double sided and some pages are single sided.  So I am scanning as double sided.  Is there a way to set the scan to pdf and eliminate the blank pages??

Hi,

A such cannot be done with the original HP Scan software shipped with your printer.

 

Download and install the HP Scan Extended application below:

http://ftp.hp.com/pub/scanners/HPScanExt/HPScanExt.msi

 

Go to Start > All Apps > Hp > HP Scan Extended.

Select Save as PDF.

Click the More > Shortcut on the top right pane

Set the Page Sides as 2-Sided.

Within the Document tab select and check Delete blank pages, then click the Scan button to complete your scan.

 

Regards,

Shlomi

A little bit of work to find the scan extended file, but got it and it works great!  Thank you all!  (It would be nice if the printer/scanner program had found this itself as an update.  but glad for the Forum!)
