Hi @ARGONAUTIS,

Welcome to HP Support Community.  

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

If your HP C4340 is not scanning the entire A4 page, there could be several reasons for this issue. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the problem.

Check Scanner Glass:

• Ensure that the A4 page is placed correctly on the scanner glass.
• Make sure there are no obstructions or debris on the scanner glass that might be interfering with the scanning process.

Check Paper Size Settings:

• Verify that the paper size settings in the scanning software or on the printer control panel are set to A4.

Update Drivers:

• Make sure you have the latest drivers and software installed for your HP C4340. Visit the HP official website to download and install the latest drivers if needed.

Reset Scanner Settings:

• Reset the scanner settings to default and then reconfigure them according to your preferences.

Check for Software Issues:

• Ensure that the scanning software is not encountering any errors. Try using a different scanning application or reinstall the current software.

Restart the Printer:

• Turn off the printer, wait for a few seconds, and then turn it back on. Sometimes, a simple restart can resolve various issues.

Inspect for Hardware Issues:

• Check for any physical damage to the scanner or the scanning mechanism. If you notice any issues, you may need to contact HP support or a service professional.

Check for Updates:

• Make sure that your printer's firmware is up to date. Check the HP website for any available firmware updates.

Scan in Sections:

• As a temporary solution, you can try scanning the A4 page in sections and then combine the sections using image editing software.

I hope this helps. 
 

Take care and have a good day.
