Scan multiple pages from 5520 to windows 8

I own an HP 5520 all in one. I recently bought a new Dell all in one computer with Windows 8 OS. I am having problems with scanning. I need to be able to scan two or more pages into a single PDF document. The app indicated for SCAN on this new fangled layout of where the apps are (they don't even call it a desktop anymore) opens a and of course all of teh ancillary funbctions of te app are hifdden or disguised somewhere on the page. After an hour of tryig to get the **bleep** thing to scan multiple pages into a single PDF document, I gave up. This sucks. I just want my old set up for the scan feature that allowed me to add as many pages as I wanted to a single PDF document. **bleep**!

Hi Kevin,
Well, bleep. Don't you just hate it when simple stuff turns into rocket science.
The fact of it is that the Full Feature Software is supposed to provide a shortcut on the Desktop - that Printer Assistant shortcut is supposed to be full of printer utilities, one of which is the "Scan Document or Photo". Just to make it more interesting, the Printer Assistant is not NAMED the Printer Assistant; it will be named for your printer: Photosmart 5520 or something.
Install Full Feature Software – Photosmart 5520 Series
Assuming the software installs and that the Full Feature Software that installs provides some version of the program that provides it, the Scan sub-routine does (in those cases) provide the means to scan multiple pages to a single PDF file.
Failing THAT, there is yet hope -- because one of our Experts found a program that will do the job.
See:
Scan_Multiple_Documents-Combine
I hope this works.

Scanning multiple pages from 5520 to iPad.

I can scan single pages on 5520 to iPad using AiO Remote app but cannot figure out how to get them into one file. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi,
After touch "No, I'm done" you can save all 4 xxx_1, xxx_2, xxx_3 and xxx_4 (xxx normally date and time) files on ONE file by touching pdf at the top right. You can give it a name and it will have all 4 pages.
Regards.

Scanning multiple pages from print book into computer

How to scan multiple pages from print book into computer? Someone supplied a link to this question, but I got stuck at step 1: Where is "HP Director software"? In other directions, it says to open the "HP Scan window," but that option is not available to me when I follow the directions. I have an HP 2159m computer, HP Photosmart Plus all-in-one, Windows 7, and use Firefox, if that's any help.
TIA

I have a similar problem:
I am using an HP Officejet 6310xi via its TWAIN interface. Regardless of which application invokes TWAIN (whether Irfanview, Thumbs Plus, or something else), the scanner dialog closes after transferring each scanned image. To scan the next page requires re-starting the scanner, beginning with a whole new preview and re-entering all my scan settings. This is only an issue with the HP scanner, not with my Cannon CanoScan LIDE 100, Visioneer OneTouch 8920, or any other scanner, each of whose scanner dialogs stay open for scan after scan. Can anyone help me make the HP scanner dialog stay open for multiple pages?
Note: Based on a suggestion on another site I set my scan preferences to include "Prompt for Additional Scans from Glass" as follows, but it did not help.
I am experienced at scanning, but I find it extremely frustrating that the HP scan dialog closes, forgetting its settings, after each page.
If it helps others, I gladly share my article, "Freedom from Paper--At Last" here

Solution for scanning multiple pages from inside the form6i/10g

Hi All,
I need to scan multiple pages from Oracle forms (6i/10g) using a scanner which is scanning multiple pages per minute. Can any one post a solution for me.
Hafeez

here are the two ways I use to scan images.
1) if the image is a single TIF image then d2kwutil can upload the image into a BLOB field on the database (but it is limited to only SINGLE-page TIFs).
2) if the image is a single or multi-page PDF, then your forms client must copy the image to a filesystem location known by the database (where the filesystem location is a directory on the database), and then the database can import the image into a BLOB field within the database.
either solutions work pretty fast for me (<10 seconds per image)

How can I scan multiple pages from the ADF to one pdf file?

I wirelessly scan double-sided multiple-page documents, typically 37 pages, using an ADF (Automatic Document Feeder) from my HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911g to my MacBook Pro. The scanner works fine except it tries to save the files as 37 separate files and either it or the MacBook runs out of memory as it turns it into a massive file, 300mb or so. How can I get it to just scan it as one file? I have the quality setting at 300dpi.

Hello again webbo51,
Thanks for the information I requested.
I am going to add a screen shot of what you should be seeing when scanning with the HP software.
You must have PDF selected to be able to scan a multiple page document into one folder.
Once you select PDF, you will see the option to Save as one file.
Please feel free to write me back if you have any other questions.
Thanks again for your time.

Scanning multiple pages from a HP Photosmart D110

I'm a relatively new MacBook Air user. When trying to scan a document with my HP PhotoSmart D110 printer/scanner, I am only able to scan one page at a time. My wife's older MacBook offers the option to add pages to the scan (as did my last several HP laptops). The document is 16 pages so scanning each one separately really isn't an option. What can I do?

It should work. Read here:

Restart your iPad, your router, and the printer.
Some routers are not AirPrint compatible, notably Arris, Huawei, and some used by Vodaphone. What kind is yours?

Scanning Multiple Pages to ONE PDF O/J 8620

I am scanning an airplane logbook so I can NOT use the ADF. I need to scan to a PDF and have multiple pages. I only want 1 PDF - not 10 different PDF's with 10 different pages... Trying everything and nothing seems to work.
My old O/Jet did this without any problems! This scanner is useless if this feature is gone.
PLEASE HELP!

Hello David, welcome to the forums,
I understand you are looking to scan multiple pages from your logbook into one file, using the scanner bed. You should see an option to add another page after each page is done scanning.

How do I scan multiple pages into one pdf file using the PIXMA MG7520 on Windows 8.0? Please help!

I recently received a PIXMA MG7520 for a gift. It works great with my lenovo laptop/tablet running on Windos 8.0. The one drawback to the HP all-in-one that it replaced is it does not have an ADF. That being said, there must be some way to scan multiple pages into one pdf file. I need help figuring thing out. Thanks in advance!

Hi mdtolbert54,
There is a program that comes with the printer called the IJ Scan Utility that can assist you with scanning multiple pages into a single PDF document. To do this, please follow these steps:
1. On your keyboard, press the Windows key.
2. Start typing IJ SCAN UTILITY. The search window opens as you type. Once the IJ SCAN UTILITY is displayed, please select and open it.
3. In the Canon IJ Scan Utility window that opens, click SETTINGS.... in the bottom right of the window. The Settings dialog box appears.
4. Click the DOCUMENT SCAN option on the left pane of the window.
5. In the SAVE SETTINGS section of the window, you will select the save format and location of the document you are about to scan.
a.) In the FILE NAME field, specify the name you would like to give the file. By default the filename will begin with IMG; you can remove IMG and change it to whatever you would like to name the file.
b.) In the DATA FORMAT field, use the drop-down arrow to select the PDF (Multiple Pages) option.
c.) In the SAVE IN field, please navigate to the area where you would like the file to be saved once it is scanned in. By default, the file will be saved in the MY DOCUMENTS folder.
6. Once all settings have been selected, click the OK button at the bottom of the window to save the changes. The IJ Scan Utility main screen appears.
7. Click the DOCUMENT button. Scanning starts. Click the CANCEL button to cancel scanning if needed. Scanned items are saved in previously selected folder location specified in the SETTINGS... window.
If you find that you need advanced scanning options such as adjusting resolution, brightness, contrast, saturation, color balance, etc. in addition to the options selected above, please click on the SCANGEAR button on the IJ Scan Utility Main screen, then adjust the items as necessary.
Once the items above are set for document scanning, in the future, you will only need to launch the IJ Scan Utility, then press the DOCUMENT button to perform the scan (unless you want to make changes to the settings).
Hope this helps!

Scanning multiple pages in one document

I am trying to scan multiple pages in one document. I am using a HP Envy 4501 All-in-one and running Windows 8.1. I used to be able to do this at one point but for some reason, lately I am not able to. I have read other posts that spoke of a "+" sign on the left side of the screen, but it is not there for me. Also, I cannot just save the page and scan the next without having to save them under different file names. Please advise.

Hi,
From the HP Software click on Scan a Document or Photo and ensure the Sow Scan Preview is checked.
Reduce the Scan Resolution into 300 or a lower resolution and press on Scan, then the add button should appear again.

Scanning multiple pages to single file

I have the HP Officejet Pro 8600. I use to be able to scan multiple pages to one file. For some reason now it separates the pages into single files. Under advanced settings it looks like the option "create a separate file for each scanned page" is checked, however, it is not highlighted so I can't change it or uncheck it.

KB-Sales,
Welcome to the HP Forum.
Assuming a recent Windows Operating System and that you install the Full Feature Software (printer software), then you may use the Printer Assistant shortcut to access Scan Document or Photo.
From there, you may be able to use / create a Scan Template to combine files to output to a final, single file.
The following Dragon Document may help:
Scan_Multiple_Documents-Combine

Hello @MYBOU2 ,
Welcome to the HP forum.
What you are asking should not be too hard. The key factor right now is: what is your operating system?
The process is different on a Mac compared to a Windows computer.
This link explains how to do what you want with windows 7.
