HP Smart Tank 7005 All-in-One

On my epson scanner I could specify the scan area I required (customise) 

On the hp 7005 there are only limited options, and no customise.

Is there any way around this? or should I wait for a product update??

Welcome to the HP Community --

 

The hardware is aware of the mechanics -- that is, the printer is built with certain scan specifications.

Reference: Product Specifications for the HP Smart Tank 7005 All-in-One (28B54A)

Section Scan

 

  • What you can do is controlled within the applications and software used to scan the content.
  • The available apps and software are determined by the Operating System / version.
  • The Operating System / version is a product of the type of device (computer, tablet, phone).

 

General Example - Windows - HP Scan (part of the Full Feature Software) - PDF

Page Size = "Detect Content on Page"

9025_HP_Scan_Menu_PDF_More_Destination_99025_HP_Scan_Menu_PDF_More_Destination_9

 

General Example - HP Smart - Windows - Scan - Photo (and Save)

Note the Scan Source and Scan Area settings available in the sample:

Scan Source

  • Scanner Glass (Flatbed)

Scan Area

  • Entire Scan Area
  • Letter (8.5 x 11 in)
  • A4 (210 x 297 mm)
  • 4 x 6 in (10 x 15 cm)
  • 5 x 7 in (13 x 18 cm)

General Example - HP Smart - Mobile - iPadOS - Scan Options

HP_Smart_Mobile_Scan_PDF-Image_Options_7HP_Smart_Mobile_Scan_PDF-Image_Options_7

 

What else?

 

After the content is scanned, and before it is printed / saved / shared, the scanned content can be cropped to change the captured content and / or the shape of the scan.

 

General Example - HP Smart - Windows - Scan > Edit > Options (Crop)

HP_Smart_Win_Scan_Edit_Image_Set_1HP_Smart_Win_Scan_Edit_Image_Set_1
