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)

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.

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 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 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.

Scanning multiple pages into one file using MAC

How do I scan multiple pages and save them into one file or document using a MacBook Pro laptop? My printer is an HP Photosmart 7520. When I use this printer and scan from my PC, it does allow me to scan multiple copies and save as one document by just adding pages as I scan. When I scan with my MacBook Pro, it scans each page, however, I don't get any option or choice to save as one document. It automatically saves each page as a separate document.

Try scanning from your Mac. Use Image Capture app in your Applications folder.
Click once on the scanner on the left side, then click on Show Details along the bottom. Along the right side you will see LOTS of options for scanning and saving.
One of those is Format, make the Format PDF. Just below that will be a check box allowing you to scan multiple pages to one file.

How do I scan multiple pages into one pdf document on a HP Envy 4501 Printer

My HP Envy 4501 Printer won't let me scan multiple pages into one pdf document.
I went to "Advanced Settings", clicked on "file" and made sure that the check box next to "Create a separate file for each scanner page" was unchecked.
When I clicked the Save button it showed the page that I scanned and showed 1/1. On the right side it had options for changing the brightness and Contrast, Rotate and Crop and "Back", "Save" and "Done" buttons, but nothing about scanning another page.
Not to mention HP's Customer Support is useless!
I'd appreciate any help I can get with this problem.
Thanks,
Mark

Hi BH,
I see your diagram. I just scanned something. The screen that I'm looking at right now shows the preview page and the scroll box to the left of that just like in your diagram. The screen does not show the + button nor does it show the red x button under the scroll box as in your diagram. I can't see the plus sign because it is not there.
I tried re-installing the software and drivers as you suggested but that did not have any affect.
Thank you for trying to help me with this problem but it hasn't worked, therefore I can't mark the reply "Accept as Solution".
I've noticed that on HP's support forum web page there is only 1 solved request for assistance. That doesn't give me much confidence in HP.
Please reply back to this post to let me know if there is anything else that I can try or if you know someone else at HP that can help.
If I don't here back from you, I'm returning this HP Envy 4501 Printer to get my money back to use it to buy a printer from one of HP's competitors.
Thanks,
Mark

Scanning multiple pages into one document

I have an HP8600 running off a MacBook Pro - I used to be able to scan multiple pages (both from the auto feed and manually) save them as one document. Lately though it is saving them each as its own document. This is happening with both MacBooks connected to my printer. Thanks

Hi DCompass,
Thanks again for trying that for me. Definitely odd that you are not seeing the drop-down. If you don't see Contents, do you see .PDF? Once it is in a .PDF format you should be able to combine into a single-file. From what I have tried.
If not, then I would recommend to do the following one more time:
Uninstall the software. Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Re-install the software using the download from this website. HP Officejet Pro 8600 series Full Feature Software and Drivers.
Make sure your Mac is up-to-date. About the OS X Mavericks v10.9.5 Update.
Hope this clears things up for you, please let me know if you have any further issues!

Scan multiple pages into a single PDF document?

How can i scan multiple pages into a single multipage PDF file?
I've seen similar questions posted, but I haven't found any good answers. The only advice i saw was to scan each page as a separate PDF document, then merge them into a single PDF using third-party software.
Obviously, i don't want to have to do that.
I can't believe that there really is no way to do it using the existing HP print/scan utilities provided with the hardware.
My printer/scanner is the "HP Photosmart 5514 e-All-in-One Printer - B111h", and i'm running Vista (64-bit) on an HP Pavillion notebook.
This question was solved.

Hi,
From the HP Scan software (Start > Programs > HP > HP Photosmart 5510 Series > HP Scan) select PDF and ensure the resolution is 300 DPI or lower.
Ensure the Show Scan Preview option is checked and click on Scan.
Once scanning the first page completes, place the next page on the glass and click the plus button below the scan preview...
Once you are done click on Save.
