3 Scan

Using the product’s control panel, you can scan originals and send them to a variety of destinations, such as a folder or a program on a computer. You can also scan originals using the HP software provided with the product and TWAIN-compliant or WIA-compliant programs on a computer.

You can use the HP software to convert the text in scanned documents into a format that you can search, copy, paste, and edit.

NOTE: Scan functions are only available after you install the software.

This section contains the following topics:

•Scan an original

•Edit a scanned document using optical character recognition (OCR) software

Scan an original

You can start a scan from a computer or from the device control panel.

To use the scan features, your device and computer must be connected and turned on. The HP software must also be installed and running on your computer prior to scanning. To verify that the HP software is running on a computer running Windows, look for the device icon in the system tray at the lower-right side of the screen, near the clock.

NOTE: Closing the HP Digital Imaging Monitor icon in your Windows system tray can cause your device to lose some of its scan functionality and result in the No Connection error message. If this happens, you can restore full functionality by restarting your computer or by starting the HP Digital Imaging Monitor.

NOTE: If you are using a computer running Windows, you can also use the

HP Solution Center to scan an image. Using this software, you can edit a scanned image and create special projects using a scanned image. For more information, see the onscreen help that came with your software.

This section contains the following topics:

•Scan an original from the product control panel

Scan an original from the product control panel

You can send a scan to a computer connected directly to the device. You can also send a scan to a program installed on a computer.

NOTE: If you are scanning a borderless original, load the original on the scanner glass, not the ADF.

To scan from the product control panel

1.Load the original. For more information, see Load an original on the scanner glass.

2.Press left arrow or right arrow to select the Scan function, and then press OK.

3.Press right arrow to select what to do with the scan, and then press OK.

4.Press Start.

Edit a scanned document using optical character recognition (OCR) software

You can use OCR software to import scanned text into your preferred word-processing program for editing. This allows you to edit letters, newspaper clippings, and many other documents.

You can specify the word-processing program that you want to use for editing. If the wordprocessing icon is not present or active, either you do not have word-processing software installed on your computer, or the scanner software did not recognize the program during the installation. See the onscreen Help for the HP Solution Center for information about how to create a link to the word-processing program.

The OCR software does not support scanning colored text. Colored text is always converted to black-and-white text before being sent to OCR. Thus, all text in the final document is in black and white, regardless of the original color.

Because of the complexity of some word-processing programs and their interaction with the device, it is sometimes preferable to scan to a text editor, such as Wordpad (Windows) or TextEdit (Mac OS X), and then cut and paste the text into the preferred wordprocessing program.

4 Copy

You can produce high-quality color and grayscale copies on a variety of paper types and sizes.

NOTE: If you are copying a document when a fax arrives, the fax is stored in the device memory until the copying finishes. This can reduce the number of fax pages stored in memory.

This section contains the following topics:

•Copy documents

Send a fax

You can send a fax in a variety of ways. Using the device control panel, you can send a black-and-white or color fax. You can also send a fax manually from an attached phone. This allows you to speak with the recipient before sending the fax.

This section contains the following topics:

•Send a basic fax

•Send a fax manually from a phone

•Send a fax using monitor dialing

•Send a fax from memory

•Schedule a fax to send later

•Send a fax to multiple recipients

•Send a fax in Error Correction Mode

Send a basic fax

You can easily send a singleor multiple-page black-and-white or color fax by using the device control panel.

NOTE: If you need printed confirmation that your faxes were successfully sent, enable fax confirmation before sending any faxes.

TIP: You can also send a fax manually from a phone or by using monitor dialing. These features allow you to control the pace of your dialing. They are also useful when you want to use a calling card to charge the call and you have to respond to tone prompts while dialing.

To send a basic fax from the device control panel

1.Load your originals. If you are faxing a borderless original, load the original on the scanner glass, not the ADF. For additional information, see Load an original on the scanner glass.

4.Press Start.

If the device detects an original loaded in the automatic document feeder, it sends the document to the number you entered.

TIP: If the recipient reports issues with the quality of the fax you sent, you can try changing the resolution or contrast of your fax.

Send a fax manually from a phone

Sending a fax manually allows you to make a phone call and talk with the recipient before you send the fax. This is useful if you want to inform the recipient that you are going to send them a fax before sending it. When you send a fax manually, you can hear the dial tones, telephone prompts, or other sounds through the handset on your telephone. This makes it easy for you to use a calling card to send your fax.

Depending on how the recipient has their fax machine set up, the recipient might answer the phone, or the fax machine might take the call. If a person answers the phone, you can speak with the recipient before sending the fax. If a fax machine answers the call, you can send the fax directly to the fax machine when you hear the fax tones from the receiving fax machine.

To send a fax manually from an extension phone

1.Load your originals. If you are copying a borderless original, load the original on the scanner glass, not the ADF. For additional information, see Load an original on the scanner glass.

2.Press the left arrow or right arrow to select Fax B&W or Fax Color , and then press OK.

3.Dial the number by using the keypad on the phone that is connected to the device.

NOTE: Do not use the keypad on the control panel of the device when manually sending a fax. You must use the keypad on your phone to dial the recipient’s number.

Chapter 5

4.If the recipient answers the telephone, you can engage in a conversation before sending your fax.

NOTE: If a fax machine answers the call, you will hear fax tones from the receiving fax machine. Proceed to the next step to transmit the fax.

5.When you are ready to send the fax, press Start.

NOTE: If prompted, select Send Fax.

If you were speaking with the recipient before sending the fax, inform the recipient that they should press Start on their fax machine after they hear fax tones.

The telephone line is silent while the fax is transmitting. At this point, you can hang up the telephone. If you want to continue speaking with the recipient, remain on the line until the fax transmission is complete.

Send a fax using monitor dialing

Monitor dialing allows you to dial a number from the device control panel as you would dial a regular telephone. When you send a fax using monitor dialing, you can hear the dial tones, telephone prompts, or other sounds through the speakers on the device. This enables you to respond to prompts while dialing, as well as control the pace of your dialing.

TIP: If you do not enter your calling card PIN fast enough, the device might start sending fax tones too soon and cause your PIN not to be recognized by the calling card service. If this is the case, you can create a speed dial entry to store the PIN for your calling card.

NOTE: Make sure the volume is turned on, or you will not hear a dial tone.

When a connection is made, it sends the fax and dials the next number. If a number is busy or not answering, the device follows the settings for Busy Redial and No Answer Redial. If a connection cannot be made, the next number is dialed and an error report is generated.

Send a fax in Error Correction Mode

Error Correction Mode (ECM) prevents loss of data due to poor phone lines by detecting errors that occur during transmission and automatically requesting retransmission of the erroneous portion. Phone charges are unaffected, or might even be reduced, on good

phone lines. On poor phone lines, ECM increases sending time and phone charges, but sends the data much more reliably. The default setting is On. Turn ECM off only if it increases phone charges substantially, and you can accept poorer quality in exchange for reduced charges.

Before turning the ECM setting off, consider the following. If you turn ECM off

•The quality and transmission speed of faxes you send and receive are affected.

•The Fax Speed is automatically set to Medium.

•You will no longer be able to send or receive faxes in color.

To change the ECM setting from the control panel

1.Press Setup.

2.Press right arrow until Fax Settings appears, and then press OK.

3.Press right arrow until Error Correction Mode appears, and then press OK.
