how to use the scanner
You can start your scanner projects in one of two ways: from the scanner buttons
or from the HP Photo & Imaging software. The scanner buttons offer shortcuts to
some of the software functions. Start from the software when you want more
options and control or if your scanner model does not have all the buttons.
The procedures in this section use the default button settings. For more information
about changing the settings for one or more buttons, see change button
settings
in the HP Photo & Imaging software Help.
