HP LaserJet Scan software
The HP LaserJet Scan software allows you to either scan from the HP LaserJet all-in-one
product or to read from a file and then do the following with the data.
●Save the scanned item to a file.
●Attach the scanned item to an e-mail.
●Perform OCR on the scanned item through Readiris Pro text recognition software (OCR) (if
Readiris Pro is installed on the computer).
●Open the scanned item with any third-party software application that supports drag and
drop.
The HP LaserJet Scan software uses scans via TWAIN and performs any necessary file
conversions. The HP LaserJet Scan software is set up to scan by default , but the General tab
on the Settings dialog box does provide an override to read a scanned item from a file. This is
helpful both for testing when a scanner is not available and for converting existing files into some
other output file type. The following file types are currently supported.
●.BMP
●.GIF
●.JPG
●.PDF
●.TIFF (both regular and compressed)
The following additional file types are supported as output by the Readiris Pro text recognition
software (OCR). If you want to use one of these formats, select Readiris as your destination and
save the file from within the Readiris Pro program.

If you do not change any settings on the Scan Settings dialog box, the HP LaserJet Scan
software prompts you for any needed information, such as a file name if you are sending the
scanned item to a file folder or an e-mail address if you are sending the scanned item via e-mail.
If you specify an e-mail address in the Scan Settings dialog box before you scan your item, the
e-mail is sent automatically without displaying the new message dialog box.
Every time the HP LaserJet Scan software is executed, an HPPSCAN2.LOG file is generated
within the current user's temporary directory. The HPPSCAN2.LOG file logs operations and aids
in troubleshooting problems.

Scanning to a file sends the scanned image to a My Scans directory in your My Documents
folder unless you have specified otherwise.
Selecting the third-party destination option saves the scanned image to a file of the specified file
type. The HP LaserJet Scan software then launches the specified software application by
appending the filename after the application filename. The HP LaserJet Scan software does not
support automatic discovery of software applications. This means that you must specify the
following information.
●The correct software application
●A file type that your software application supports
●That the software application will open the the filename when it is passed as a command
line argument during launch
The HP LaserJet Scan software does not support multi-page scanning from the flatbed.
E-mail
The HP LaserJet all-in-one software for Windows supports only MAPI-compliant e-mail
applications, not Internet-based e-mail programs such as Hotmail or Yahoo. The following
programs are examples of the type of e-mail programs supported by the HP LaserJet all-in-one
product software.
●
Microsoft Exchange
●
Microsoft Outlook
●Microsoft Outlook Express
●Lotus Notes (3.0 or later)
E-mail is always sent through your default e-mail client as noted in the E-mail control on your

Scan drivers
The HP LaserJet all-in-one product software includes the following integrated scan drivers.
●TWAIN scan driver
●Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) scan driver
Note
Note
Someone with Administrator privileges must initiate a scan and send a fax before any other
faxes can be sent on the HP LaserJet all-in-one product.
TWAIN scan driver
The HP LaserJet all-in-one product software includes a TWAIN driver user interface that
allows great flexibility and a wide range of image quality options. TWAIN is an industry
standard scanning protocol, and scans from the HP LaserJet all-in-one product can be
initiated from any TWAIN-compliant application.
The current supported scan language is PML.
The TWAIN driver does not support duplex scanning.
TWAIN compatibility
TWAIN-compliant applications can acquire documents directly from the HP LaserJet all-inone product. Programs that follow the TWAIN standards should work. (The HP LaserJet allin-one products support only the required core functions for TWAIN compliance. It does not
support extended TWAIN options.)
TWAIN scanning does not work with some applications
For applications that are not TWAIN-compliant, use the following process as a workaround.
1Scan the document in .TIF format (or any other file type supported by that application)
into a folder using the HP LaserJet Scan software.
2Import the .TIF file into the program.
Additional information about TWAIN
For more information about TWAIN, visit the following Web site.

ENChapter 2 Software overview19
TWAIN driver user interface
Figure 2-3.TWAIN driver user interface
The TWAIN user interface contains the following options.
●New Scan. This control causes a rescan of the image. Flatbed rescans are always at 75
dpi and in color. ADF rescans are always at 300 dpi and in color.
●Accept. This control causes a rescan of the image if the original is on a flatbed scanner
and sends the image back to application with the specified settings.
●Resize. This control changes the selection area for final scan. The final scan is performed
within this selection area.
●Lighten/Darken. This control performs lightening or darkening on the scanned image. This
operation is done post-scan on the returned image. No device interaction takes place.
●Color Adjustment. This control performs color adjustment on the scanned image. This
operation is done post-scan on the returned image. No device interaction takes place.
●Resolution. This option designates the final resolution for the image. Resolutions above
600 dpi are interpolated by the software.
●Mirror. This option flips the scanned image horizontally. This operation is done post-scan
on the returned image. No device interaction takes place.
●Invert Colors. This control inverts the colors in the scanned image. This operation is done
post-scan on the returned image. No device interaction takes place.
●Descreen. This control applies a special algorithm to detect and remove undesirable
patterns from the scanned image. Choosing this option will automatically trigger a rescan,
because the descreen operation must take place as the image data is flowing in from the
scanner.
20Scan driversEN
●Rotate. This control rotates the scanned image left or right by 90 degrees. This operation is
done post-scan on the returned image. No device interaction takes place.
●Zoom. This control zooms in on the selected area of the scan. This will automatically
cause a rescan if it is needed in order to get an image that is good enough to zoom in
on.
●Reset Tools. This option resets all the controls to their default values.
You can set additional scan settings by positioning your mouse over the Scan menu, and
then clicking Scan preferences.
Figure 2-4.
Scan Preferences dialog box

WIA has its own user interface that is relatively simple and does not contain the wide range
of image quality options that are available in the TWAIN driver user interface.
When you use the WIA scan driver, you must modify brightness and contrast post-scan.
Contrast or brightness modifications cannot be set on the device. Only native device resolutions
are supported and software interpolation is not performed. The WIA scan driver supports scan
types of ADF or Flatbed, but does not support duplex scanning.
Note
WIA support is not installed when the scan driver is installed over a network. The scanner icon is
not visible and only TWAIN scans are possible.

access to the fax phone book or editing your personal data. Cover pages are completed with
your name, company name, phone number, and fax number as you entered them when you last
edited them. However, you are still able to preview and send faxes.
In some cases, faxing from the computer is more convenient than faxing from the HP LaserJet
all-in-one control panel, such as in the following examples.
●Faxing to multiple recipients
●Creating a cover page
●Faxing without first printing and scanning the document
Faxing to multiple recipients
If you need to send a fax to multiple recipients, the HP Send Fax software allows you to
enter the names and fax numbers of each recipient easily.

Users of shared computers can only print from their computers to
the product and they must have the full software package
installed on their computers.
Supported configurations
This section includes information about the following topics:
●Direct connection
●Network connections
28Supported configurationsEN
Direct connection
In the direct (or local) configuration, the HP LaserJet all-in-one product is connected directly
to the host computer with an IEEE-1284B parallel or Universal Serial Bus (USB) cable. In
this configuration, the product is not shared. A single user has complete physical control
over the product. Most users are familiar with using peripherals that are directly connected to
their computers. You can gain access to all of the capabilities of the product in this
configuration.
Network connection options
The following networking options are available for the HP LaserJet 3015, the HP LaserJet
3020 and 3030, and the HP LaserJet 3380 all-in-one products:
Local connection using Microsoft peer-to-peer networking (Windows only)
Microsoft Windows allows a person to share a local printer over the network. The operating
system handles all of the networking issues. The product will print in this configuration, but
only the local computer will be able to use the faxing and scanning functionality; network
faxing and scanning are not supported in this configuration. Also, because Microsoft peer-topeer networking is unidirectional, network users do not receive printer status messages
when they print to the product.
Note
HP does not support vending drivers across operating systems that have different printer
driver architectures, such as HP Traditional drivers and HP Unidrivers. To use mixed
operating systems, you must install an alternate print driver and download the driver for the
specific operating system as described in the HP customer support document HP Color
LaserJet and LaserJet Printers - MS Windows NT 4.0 through MS Windows 2000 and
beyond, Print Driver Issues for Operating in a Mixed Operating System Environment.
System requirements for peer-to-peer networking
The network computers that will be using the HP LaserJet all-in-one software need to meet
the same requirements as a direct connection for operating systems, processor type and
speed, and available hard disk space.
Networked with HP Jetdirect external print server
In this configuration, your HP LaserJet all-in-one product is connected to a network through
an HP Jetdirect print server, such as the HP Jetdirect 300X and 500X (parallel) or the HP
Jetdirect en3700 (USB) print servers. The product can be under the direct control of a single
user or in a common area with other networked resources. All users on operating systems
that support the full product software have access to the printing, outbound faxing, and
scanning functionality of the product.
When networking using a supported HP Jetdirect print server, you are able to perform nearly
all of the functions just as if your HP LaserJet all-in-one product was directly connected.
There are some limitations on scan functions.
ENChapter 2 Software overview29
HP Jetdirect networking requirements
The following are required for your HP LaserJet all-in-one product to work on an HP Jetdirect
network connection.
●
An installed network using the TCP/IP or IPX/SPX network protocol.
Note
If you are using the TCP/IP protocol, you must configure the HP Jetdirect print server for a
direct peer-to-peer connection from the computer to the product for network users to have
the full print, fax, and scan functionality of your HP LaserJet all-in-one product. The IPX/SPX
network protocol supports print functions only.
If you are setting up peer-to-peer printing ("Windows sharing") on a Windows 98SE, Me, NT 4.0,
2000, or XP network, you can use the driver installation software to print directly to the printer.
●A cable for your type of network connections (not included). This cable is used to connect
the HP Jetdirect print server to a network port.
●A supported HP Jetdirect external print server. The model used depends on the type of
network you have and how many HP LaserJet all-in-one products (or other devices) you
want to connect to the print server.
The following HP Jetdirect external print servers are supported.
●HP Jetdirect 170X (J3258B). Use this model if you have a 10-Base-T network, and only
need to connect the HP LaserJet all-in-one product to this print server. This print server
does not support Web Scan. This print server is not compatible with Mac systems.
●HP Jetdirect 175X (J6035C). Use this model if you have a 10-Base-T or a 100-Base-T
network, and only need to connect your HP LaserJet all-in-one product to this print server.

before using the HP Jetdirect external print server with your HP LaserJet all-in-one product. See
the documentation that came with the HP Jetdirect print server for more information about
upgrading the firmware.
You can download a firmware upgrade from the following Web site.
http://www.hp.com/go/webjetamin_firmware
The HP Jetdirect 170X and 175X print server firmware is not upgradeable.
Multitasking capabilities
The HP LaserJet 3015, the HP LaserJet 3020 and 3030, and the HP LaserJet 3380 all-in-one
products are designed to carry out multiple tasks simultaneously. This enables you to initiate
tasks when they are needed, without waiting.
The HP LaserJet all-in-one products perform multiple tasks such as printing, scanning,
copying, faxing, and PC faxing. Depending on which functions are in use, the HP LaserJet
all-in-one product can perform many functions at the same time. This high level of
multitasking is made possible by the two separate paper paths (a print paper path and a
scan paper path) of the HP LaserJet all-in-one products. Additionally, these products feature
at least 32 MB of memory that can efficiently manage multiple tasks, and a scan-ahead
feature that quickly clears the scan paper path for subsequent jobs.
The following table shows which tasks the HP LaserJet all-in-one products can perform while
another function is already in use.
Note
Note
The HP LaserJet all-in-one products can perform multiple tasks when directly connected to a
computer or when connected to a network with an HP Jetdirect external print server. The
copy and scan functions are not available when using a Windows sharing (peer-to-peer)
connection.

Differences between the network-connected
and direct-connected configurations
When networking using a supported HP Jetdirect print server, you can perform nearly all of the
product functions just as if your HP LaserJet all-in-one product was directly connected to your
computer. The following are a few exceptions:
●
The WIA scan driver for Windows XP is not available on a network.
●One touch scanning with the START SCAN button on the control panel of the HP LaserJet
all-in-one product is not supported on networked HP LaserJet all-in-one products. The
START SCAN button on the control panel of the HP LaserJet all-in-one product launches
the HP LaserJet Scan software on the PC in direct connections.
32Differences between the network-connected and direct-connected configurationsEN
●The Scan to e-mail or folder functionality is turned off by default for network connections.
You must enable this function in the HP Toolbox for networked computers.
●The Scan to e-mail or folder entries will be prefixed with a host name abbreviation for
networked computers in order to differentiate between computers on the network.
Port communication
This section provides information on the following topics:
●Port communication overview
●Parallel port connections
●USB port connections
●Device conflicts in Windows
Overview
The HP LaserJet 3015, the HP LaserJet 3020 and 3030, and the HP LaserJet 3380 all-inone products include both an IEEE-1284B parallel port and a USB port.
The HP LaserJet all-in-one products can be connected with either the IEEE-1284B port or
the USB port.
Note
Do not connect both the parallel port and the USB port to the same computer.
Do not connect two computers directly to the same HP LaserJet all-in-one product. Use an
HP Jetdirect print server to connect more than one computer to one HP LaserJet all-in-one
product.
Parallel port connections
The HP LaserJet all-in-one products require a parallel port featuring a bidirectional data bus
to be directly connected to the computer. A port which is referred to as an enhanced
capabilities port (ECP) or IEEE-1284B qualifies.
Extended parallel port only (EPP-only) or unidirectional ports are not supported. However,
some ports can be set to EPP/ECP through the CMOS setup or a jumper setting, which is
supported.
Other parallel port devices
Your HP LaserJet all-in-one product must be directly connected to the computer parallel
port. If you have a switch box or other device connected to the parallel port, you must
disconnect it prior to connecting and using your HP LaserJet all-in-one product. Another
option would be to have two parallel ports installed on the computer. You can use parallel
port expansion cards, but HP does not support them.
ENChapter 2 Software overview33
Changing parallel port modes
This section provides instructions to help you ensure that the parallel port is configured to
provide the best performance with your HP LaserJet all-in-one product.
The parallel port mode determines how the parallel port performs with your HP LaserJet all-inone product. This mode can default to different settings. Unfortunately, the HP LaserJet all-inone software cannot automatically select the best setting. Therefore, you need to check this
setting yourself. ECP mode generally provides the best printing and scanning performance.
Different basic input/output system (BIOS) options frequently exist within a computer
manufacturer's range of products. Changing the parallel port mode is similar for all computers if
they have the capability built in. See your computer documentation for specific instructions about
changing the parallel mode for your computer.
Even though the label on the parallel port mode says ECP, it might not follow the protocol. If the
port mode option you click does not work, then try another option in the Setup. If your computer
does not have the ECP capability built in, you can install an external parallel port card to add this
functionality.
In addition to the parallel port mode being set incorrectly, other areas of potential parallel port
conflict might exist involving software and hardware from other manufacturers. If none of the
options in the Setup allow your HP LaserJet all-in-one product to communicate with the
computer, or you have other devices that need a parallel port, you can add an external ECP
parallel port card to your computer. Then, connect your HP LaserJet all-in-one product to one of
the parallel ports and connect the other devices you have to the other parallel port. These
parallel port cards are available at computer stores and allow your HP LaserJet all-in-one
product to communicate with your computer without conflicting with other devices.
Note
USB port connections
USB version 2.0 is an input/output mode that is supported by both PCs and Macs. A wide variety
of consumer devices, such as digital cameras and scanners, also support USB. Version 2.0 is
the current standard. Note that the HP LaserJet all-in-one products are compatible with USB
version 2.0 specifications.
There is a distinction between a USB Host and a USB Device. The HP LaserJet all-in-one
products are USB Devices. They can only connect to a USB Host or a USB Hub.
Device conflicts in Windows
When two-way communication cannot be established with the HP LaserJet all-in-one product,
the Windows Device Manager might show a conflict. Conflicts should be resolved immediately
before continuing to troubleshoot two-way communication issues. The following sections contain
a few guidelines for identifying and resolving these conflicts.
This process applies to both USB and parallel port devices. However, USB devices are only
supported in Windows 98SE, Windows Me, Windows 2000, and Windows XP.
34USB port connectionsEN
Opening the Windows Device Manager
Follow these steps to open the Windows Device Manager.
1For Windows 98SE and Windows Me, Click Start, click Settings, and then click Control
Panel.
For Windows 2000 and Windows XP, Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
2Double-click the System icon.
3On the Hardware tab, click Device Manager.
Note
In Windows 98SE, click the Device Manager tab.
Check for device conflicts
Follow these steps to check for device conflicts.
1Look for devices that appear on the list with a yellow exclamation mark (!) or a red X .
2Identify port conflicts by double-clicking Port or by clicking the plus sign (+). Conflicts
here usually interfere with two-way communication.
3To check the status of a device, click the device name, and then click Properties. The
Device Status appears in the middle of the dialog box.
4To check the Conflicting Device list, click the device name, and then click Properties.
Click the Resources tab, and look at the Conflicting Device list at the bottom of the
dialog box.
5Click the plus sign (+) to the left of Open the Other Devices. Misidentified or
noncategorized devices are placed here.
Guidelines for troubleshooting and resolving device
conflicts
Follow these steps for resolving device conflicts.
1If the conflicting device is no longer present in the list of devices, click the device name,
click Remove, and then click Yes. Click Yes to restart Windows.
2If the conflicting device is a duplicate (and one of the duplicate listings does not show a
conflict), click the name(s) of the device(s) that have a conflict, click Remove, and then
click Yes. Click Yes to restart Windows.
Note
You may not need to restart the computer in Windows 2000 or Windows XP, depending on
the type of port conflict you are resolving.
3If a device has a conflict and you have the driver for that device, remove the device and
then reinstall it. After removing the device, restart the computer. When Windows
reinstalls devices, it usually finds nonconflicting resources.
Supported third-party software
The following third-party software applications are supported by your HP LaserJet all-in-one
product software.
ENChapter 2 Software overview35
Optical character recognition (OCR)
The HP all-in-one product software does not have an integrated OCR feature. OCR capability is
provided by the third-party software program Readiris Pro text recognition software (OCR),
which is included on a separate CD-ROM shipped with your HP LaserJet all-in-one product.
About OCR reliability
OCR turns an image into computer-editable text by analyzing the image and defining the
characters to produce editable text. The accuracy obtained through OCR software depends on
the quality, size, and structure of the original document, and on the quality of the scan itself. To
obtain the best possible results when using OCR software, do the following:
●Process only pages that contain 9-point text or larger.
●Limit pages that contain underlining, forms, graphics, rotated text, photographs, and
handwriting.
●Scan images squarely.
●Make sure the pages are free of extraneous marks.
●Maximize the scanning resolution.
●Process only pages that have crisp clear text. Letters that have gaps, that "bleed" along
their edges, or that touch other letters do not work well. Text that is aligned closely to
nontext items, such as graphics, might also degrade OCR results.
●Fine-tune the amount of black and white on scanned images. See the user guide for
information.
Even if you follow these recommendations, you might still get less-than-perfect results. This is
because OCR technology itself is evolving and is still less than perfect.
Other PC fax programs
The PC fax program that came with the product is the only PC fax program that works with the
product.
If you want to continue to use your PC fax program, you must use it with the modem you already
have connected to your computer, rather than with the product. Using two PC fax programs can
cause both programs to work incorrectly.

Scan to e-mail or a folder
In the Scan to e-mail or a folder feature, you can set up the HP LaserJet all-in-one product to
later initiate a scan directly from the HP LaserJet all-in-one product control panel. On the HP
LaserJet all-in-one product control panel, press the SCAN TO button. Use the < or the >
button to select an e-mail recipient or folder location, and then press the START SCAN
button or the MENU/ENTER button. For e-mail, the scanned item is attached to an e-mail

Receive faxes to this computer
This feature of the HP Toolbox allows you to receive incoming faxes to the computer, rather than
printing them or forwarding them to another fax number.
Note
60Scan to e-mail or a folderEN
If the host computer is turned off or disconnected from the HP LaserJet all-in-one product when
a fax is received, the fax is stored on the all-in-one product until the host computer is turned on
or reconnected to the HP LaserJet all-in-one product.
Laptop users must shut down and disconnect the computer instead of undocking from a docking
station.
Follow these steps to enable the Receive faxes to this computer feature.
1Open the HP Toolbox by double-clicking the icon on the Windows desktop.
2Click the Fax tab.
3On the Fax Tasks page, click the Receive faxes to this computer check box, and then
click OK.
4Incoming faxes are uploaded to the computer where you can view them from the Fax
Receive Log page. If your computer is turned off when faxes arrive, they are stored in
the HP LaserJet all-in-one product memory and are automatically uploaded to your
computer when you turn it on again.
Note
Only one computer can have the Receive faxes to this computer option selected at one
time. You can also specify a pop-up message to appear on your computer to notify you
when a fax has been received. You can turn on the Receive faxes to this computer option
at the HP LaserJet all-in-one product control panel or in the HP Toolbox on the computer
that originally enabled the feature.

Fax Tasks
This page provides access to common fax related functionality and settings.
Figure 4-8.Fax Tasks page
68HP Toolbox sectionEN
The options in the Fax Functions section send commands to the HP LaserJet all-in-one
product. The following options are available.
●Send Fax. The Send Fax button launches the Send Fax application.
●Reprint Last Faxes. The Reprint Last Faxes function was designed because the HP
LaserJet 3015, the HP LaserJet 3030, and the HP LaserJet 3380 all-in-one products do not
have a toner-low indicator. Most fax machines will stop printing faxes when the toner is low.
The HP LaserJet all-in-one products do not have the capability to detect when the toner is
low. When faxes start to print with streaks and some blank pages, you should replace the
toner cartridge and then click Reprint Last Faxes. The HP LaserJet all-in-one product
begins to reprint faxes, beginning with the last fax received. When the product has
reprinted the faxes you need, press the STOP button on the product control panel.
●Clear Stored Faxes. The HP LaserJet all-in-one firmware does not differentiate
between faxes that have been printed and faxes that have been sent directly to the
computer. The firmware manages fax storage by trying to keep as many pages of
received faxes as long as possible. After receiving a fax and then printing the pages or
sending the pages to the computer, the firmware marks the fax as "ok to delete." When
the firmware needs more room for fax storage, it will go through the faxes and delete
enough marked fax jobs to free up the fax storage needed. The Clear Stored Faxes
removes all faxes stored in the product's memory. This includes faxes marked "ok to
delete," faxes which have not yet been printed or sent to the computer, any delayedsend faxes, and any pending redial faxes.
The Fax Receive Mode section lists options for receiving faxes. You can choose one of
these options.
●Print the Received Faxes. This is the default selection. If you choose this option, you
also have the option to receive a notification (pop-up) message when a fax is printed.
●Receive faxes to this computer. If you choose this option, you also have the option to
receive a notification (pop-up) message when a fax is received.
●Forward received faxes to a different fax machine. If you choose this option, you
also must enter a fax number to which the fax is forwarded.
If the HP LaserJet all-in-one product is shared among multiple users on different client
computers, the Fax Receive Mode setting causes the following behavior .
●If one user selects Print the Received Faxes, the Print the Received Faxes option is
selected for all users. However, individual users can choose whether or not they want
to receive a notification message when a fax is printed.
●If one of the users selects Receive faxes to this computer, the Receive faxes to this
computer is selected and the other Fax Receive Modes are disabled for all of the
other users . The user who selected Receive faxes to this computer is designated by
HP Toolbox as the “Master Client”. In order for non-Master Clients to be able to change
the received faxes selection, the Master Client must select one of the other options.
●If one of the users selects Forward faxes to a different fax machine, the Forward
faxes to a different fax machine is selected for all users with the Fax Forward
Number designated by the other user. However, any user can change the Fax
Forward Number or the Fax Receive Mode.
