How do I turn off the scanner?

Normally you do not need to turn off the scanner because after a period of inactivity (about 14 minutes), the scanner reduces to a low-power mode. If you need to turn off the scanner completely, disconnect it from the power source (electrical outlet or surge protector).

How do I resolve issues with scanning documents or text?

The scanner uses Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to convert text on a page to text that you can edit on your computer.

● If you scan text but cannot edit it, make sure you make the following selections during scanning:

– What are you scanning? Select Document. – Scan for editable text? Select Yes.

● Scanned text may not appear on your computer exactly as it appeared on the page. For example, some characters may be incorrect or missing. As you edit the text, verify the scanned text and make corrections as necessary.

● To change text scanning options, from the HP Director, click Settings, Scan Settings & Preferences, and then click Button Settings. Click the Scan Document button (Director) tab.

Note OCR is installed automatically when you install the scanning software

during scanner setup.
