over size scanning (8.5"x14")

[ShirleyRE]

Does the HP Smart tank 5102 support joining scans together to save as a single file?

Large document scanning 8.5"x14" (legal size paper)

Can I scan in two parts, and the printer joins them together, saving them as a single file?

I am looking to purchase a new all in one printer.

Welcome to the HP English Community --

This is perhaps not the printer for you.

Sure, you can scan anything in two pieces and then put those pieces together with software made for the task.

None of the HP apps or drivers include a "scan document in pieces and combine" feature.

I've not seen such software although it makes sense that someone has written an "app for that".

Product Specifications for the HP Smart Tank 5102 All-in-One Printer (4A8D0A)

If you can do so, invest in a printer that includes an Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) and also includes support for scanning at this longer size (Legal). 

True, the more functionality, the higher the price.
