How do I get my office jet 5742 to email scanned documents?

How can I email scanned documents?

Hi,
Please try:
You need to enter a valid email address, and the printer will send a 4 digit validation code to that email address. When you enter the code into the panel, it will register the email and you will be able to scan documents to send to any or all of the addresses that are defined to the printer as valid. The scanned item can be a document or a photo. The documents are sent as PDF's. The scan is routed to HP's e-print center, then routed to the address you specified. I'm not sure about the privacy issues involved in this, but the capability to do this exists, and seems to work well, but you need to wait a few minutes for the document to appear in your email.

Can't email scanned documents

Just changed to windows 8 and I'm banging my head against the wall with a scanning issue.
I have an 8600 set up wirelessly. When I scan a document (just one page) evrything looks like it's working. The scanner scans, the dialouge box work fine. I click on email pdf file, it shows up in my email. I type in the send to address, type the body of the email and click send. Everything looks like it's working but the emails aren't going out. They don't show up in my sent mail folder and the recipient doesn't receive them.
What am I doing wrong?

HP iPrint on iPhone/iPad - Can't email scanned document??? Am I missing something??

I bought a brand new C310A HP Photosmart Premium today to test something for work. I had heard that you could scan from the printer directly to an iPhone and/or iPad.   This was nearly a dream come true as we are looking to outfit our outside sales team (@ 40 people) with iPads or iPhones to allow printing and scanning while out in the field. Imagine my surprise when I get this thing setup and load HP iPrint on my phone and scan an image to a PDF and discover that I can't email the PDF document as an attachment. Am I missing something completely obvious here?
Not being able to do this seems so outrageous that I didn't even think to ask if I could email it after scanning or even investigate if it was possible. It's like buying a new car and asking if it has tires. Why of course it would. Why in the world would I want to scan a document to my phone or iPad if I wasn't going to want to send it somewhere using email at some point??
I see you can share your device and I guess access the documents from a PC or Mac directly but this hardly helps if that person has none.
Anybody have an explanation?
HP, if you monitor this site, please fix this ASAP!!   This is a terrible omission.

wow - i thought I was the only one who thought this today after buying a 310 today too!   I like the tire analogy    for the record, no, you didn't miss anything
but seriously - i'm glad u got the workaround to work - i tried it earlier and the image didn't show up in my camera roll so i got really perplexed
I'm going to post to the app store - stand alone wireless printing really has me get on board with HP again after some mediocre experiences over the past few years!
+1 on emailing - it's perfect to replace the need to fax!

Start Process From Scanned Document In Watch Folder or Email

Looking for a way for a office person to scan a document into a watch folder or email a scanned document to LCES2.
Then from that scanned document a process is started and the user in workspace has a routing slip (pdf) and the scanned document in view.
I can see how to start the process with a email or watch folder but how do I get the scanned document in as a attachment to the process routing slip?
Somewhat new to LC and not seeing any demo's on this. Any help would be great.
Thanks,
John

Hi Jasmin,
I'm facing a problem with the watched folder files, they appear under the Attachment tab for the user, but with broken links, i.e. "The requested resource () is not available" error.
what I did is simply create a new process with watched folder start point, define a list-document variable as I/O and assign this variable to the user service?
can you help

I am trying to scan document that I will then attach in an email. When I attach it it shows up as a picture within the email instead of an attachment an people can't open it. Any help here?

What kind of Mac are you using, and what version of the operating system?
You should be able to select the document that you want to attach and then use the contextual menu (right click in some worlds) to compress the document, producing a .zip file. You can then attach that to the email and it won't appear as a picture within the email.
If I recall this correctly, the "compress" part in the contextual menu may have a different terminology.

Scanned document saved and when I try to insert into an email actual doc is copied rather than an icon pointing to doc

how do I save and insert into mail a scanned document?

Welcome to Apple Discussions
You want to "attach" it not insert it. Save the document - note the name and location. From that location you can drag one or more files into the message wherever you want the attachments to appear. You can also click the Attach icon in the toolbar, or choose File > Attach Files.
If a recipient is using Mail or another email application that retains the order of the contents of your message, the recipient sees the attachment in the same location where you inserted it.

Blank scanned document when emailed

I have adobe reader Xl. When I scan documents to my computer, I can view them as a pdf file. When I email them to someone, the attachments are on the email but are blank on their end. If they have an older version of adobe reader, is that causing the document to be blank. I can I solve the problem.

Maybe the document was damaged during the email transmission? Email is not a 100% safe method; sharing documents is better done using a file sharing service, such as Acrobat Workspaces, Dropbox, or Google Drive.

Is there a way to have Adobe Acrobat run in the background while scanning documents?

This was working fine up until last week and then all of a sudden, the scanning program overrides anything else I'm doing on the computer (such as typing an email, etc). I'm not sure if a recent update removed that setting, but I'd like to be scanning documents, but not have to wait until it's done to have my computer back. Does anyone know how to change this?

My organization is having this same issue. Our scanners were using 9.2 Acrobat standardard to scan. While they were scanning, they could switch focus to another application and work while scanning continued in the background. Now, the twain driver grabs focus at the start of every page. This must have happened because of an upgrade. Any thoughts or feedback would be appreciated considering this has affected our productivity.

How do I change the resolution of a scanned document/photo on CC568A?

Its a Photosmart 7520 Series printer.
The scanned documents are way too large to email, and I can't find anywhere on the printer or online on how to change the resolution to shrink the file size.
Thank you!

Hi @JeffJohnson,
I see that you are having issues emailing the scans. I can help you.
How are you scanning the emails? (from the computer or the printer)
If you are scanning from the computer to email, you can reduce your file size by:
1. Reducing the scan resolution. Change the dpi.
2. Scan your document in black/white or grayscale.
Be aware, that this will change the quality of the scan.
Here is a document for scanning to email from the printer. I don't believe there are any settings to change the size.
How to Scan: From the Control Panel (Including Scan to Email, to a USB Drive, and to a Memory Card).
What operating system are you using? How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.
How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)
Have a nice weekend!

Editing a Scanned Document

I was emailed a scanned document and am having trouble trying to edit it in Preview. Do I need to download software to edit it, even if its not from a scanner attached to my computer? If I have to, are there any free applications or is Vuescan the only option? I doubt I would use it very often to justify buying it.
thanks.

To truly edit text in a scanned document requires using OCR software. VueScan is probably the least expensive alternative. To OCR a PDF image file you can try PDF Pen Pro - both at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
