I would like to scan multiple documents at the same time and then save them separately.
The intention is to scan 10 invoices and then store them with a separate name.
Is that possible ?

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

 

Save multiple pages or photos into one PDF file using HP Scan. You must have Adobe Reader software installed on the computer. Go to Get Adobe Reader to install the software.

NOTE: 

HP Scan does not support adding multiple JPEG, PNG, or TIFF photos into a single file. You must save photos in PDF format to save them all in one file.

  1. Check the following requirements for multi-page scanning into one PDF file:

    • To save multiple photos into one file, you must use the PDF document-related shortcuts.

    • Use a resolution setting of 300 DPI or lower.

  2. Search Windows for HP, and then select your printer.

    HP Printer Assistant opens.

  3. Click Scan, and then click Scan a Document or Photo.

    HP Scan opens.

  4. In HP Scan, select the Save as PDF or Document to File shortcut.

    • If you scanned multiple pages from the ADF, click Save. All pages save into a single file.

    • If you scanned from the scanner glass, load the next page or photo on the glass. Click the plus button  or  in the HP Scan preview window to scan the next item. Repeat this step until all pages or photos are scanned, and then click Save.

  5. Select PDF in the Save as type menu.

  6. Change the file name and the folder you want to save the scan to, and then click Save.

Here is my work-a-round:

Scan several documents as one .PDF file

Open a program capable of reading and processing .PDF files (I use Libre Office 6,16)

Then, for each document, use [File][Export as PDFF]

     enter the page number(s) of the document (like 1-3)

    Click Export

    Provide a file name

Repeat (page 4)

until done.

I hope this helps you.
