can cause the HP All-in-One to lose some of its scan functionality. If this happens,
you can restore full functionality by restarting your computer.

edits that you make apply to the current scan session only.
The HP Photosmart Software has many tools that you can use to edit your scanned
image. You can improve the overall image quality by adjusting the brightness,
sharpness, color tone, and saturation. You can also crop, straighten, rotate, or resize
the image.
