Envy 7855 All in one
Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan

From Envy 7855 will not scan from glass. Will scan through ADF.  Can use software on computer to tell to scan from Glass but very inconvenient work flow

@Chipster29, Welcome to HP Support Community!

 

You can create presets for Scan to Computer with the file type and resolution. Here is how you can do it:

 

Go to Applications > HP > HP Utility

Click on Scan to Computer

 

Now click on Edit Scan Tasks

 

Click on the File Type for example- Scan as PDF

 

Click on Show Details

 

Click on Resolution to predefine the default dpi/ppi . Also, check if the source is set to ADF if so make it automatic.

 

Once you have the required settings selected, click on Save.

Now, when you scan from your printer's control panel to the computer and select save as required format the predefined settings will be applied.

By default, the scanned documents will be saved in the Pictures folder. However, you change the destination in the Save to tab while predefining the settings.

You can create predefined settings for different file types using the same steps as above.

 

Let me know if this helps.
