Scanning Multiple Pages HP 8500A

Hi,
I want to scan multiple pages into one pdf document. When I hit scan on the printer, it will scan and then send to my computer. It won't give me the option to add another page to the pdf.
I need to know how to rectify this as I have many pages for one pdf!
Thank you,
I don't use an app on my computer. I have to manually scan the doucments.

Hi there again,
You should be able to load your multiple page document in the top ADF and select scan to computer. The multiple pages should scan to your computer and save as one file if you have selected the option in the printer software on your computer to scan multiple pages to one file.
The scanning command on the printer works together with the printer software on your computer. Also, you need to have the Full Feature Driver installed on your PC.
I hope that helps.

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 with an automatic document feeder

when using automatic document feeder to scan in multiple pages - using the Image Capture app, this process does not work for more than 2 pages. However works perfectly in PC environment.
Using a MacBook Pro with 10.8.4 and a Lexmark Interpret 405S All In One Scanner.
Is there any other all in one device that can perform this function in a Mac environment?
Please advise.

Scanning multiple pages

When i try to scan multiple pages using Acrobat 8.1 Professional, my scanner actually scans the pages I feed it, but only the first page is converted into a .pdf. The other pages do not show up. This happens whether I am creating a new .pdf or amending an existing .pdf.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks,
Eli

Ask in the forum. This is not a new feature. I don't know either.

Scanning multiple pages into PDF

I am trying to scan multiple pages into one PDF. I read the help document - which states that to add pages, one clicks on the "+" button on the left. However, my software does not show the "+" button. I have the latest version of the software. What's up with that?
This question was solved.

Hi,
Sounds like the software is not fully installed. My suggestion: re-install Full Feature Software and Drivers for your printer.

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 using HP ENVY 4500

Hi, I have a macbook pro running OSX 10.9.4, and cannot see how I can scan multiple pages. I have tried using Image Capture and the Scan function under system preferences. I place the first page on the glass and change format to pdf and check the box that says 'combine into single document'. It usually 'automatically' scans the page at this point, and if I click Overview Scan, it scans again. If I try to click on "Scan' it says it is done scanning the selected area. I have no idea what to do after this, or where to find the document (its not showing up in the selected 'Scan To' location.
Many thanks.

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.

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!

Scanning multiple pages - pop-up for "Next Page" appears

I'm running Acrobat Profession version 7 on OS X 10.5.
My scanner is an Epson Perfection 3170 with an automatic document
feeder.
The settings for scanning seem to have been goofed up -- any
assistance in resetting them would be appreciated.
Previously, I could drop a handful of pages into the feeder, choose
FILE => CREATE PDF => FROM SCANNER in Acrobat, set the scanner to ADF
(automatic document feeder), and it would create a single PDF from the
whole stack.
Now, the first page scans, the second page feeds through without
scanning, and then I get a pop-up called "Acrobat Scan". It says,
"Next Page" and "Front of Sheet 2" is selected (no other options) --
and I can choose DONE or NEXT.
If I choose NEXT, it scans the next page (and then skips another page).
When I choose DONE, it goes back to Acrobat and the PDF is created.
(Obviously, every other page in the document is missing.)
It never did this before, and it's kind of pointless having an
automated feeder if I have to stop after every page.
A few points:
- reinstalling the Epson software did not help
- I notice that I get a separate pop-up the first time the scanner dialog opens -- this pop-up allows me to choose a scanner (only one is currently installed). Don't remember getting this before the problem started.
- I have another program that uses the same scanner -- it continues to scan multiple pages without interruption. Ergo, I assume this is an Acrobat issue.
Any suggestions on fixing this issue would be appreciated.
Thanks! -c

Thanks, Brian!
I've tried turning the scanner off/on, both after the computer is booted and when it's shut off.
Between the need to select "Next Paqe" all the time, and the fact that the scanner skips every other page, I'm really annoyed!
Does anyone have any other suggestions on where I might find a solution? I considered contacting Adobe, but their per-incident support seems kind of expensive.
Thnx! -c

SCANNING MULTIPLE PAGES TO SINGLE DOCUMENT ON 8620 FLAT GLASS

Does the HP Officejet Pro 8620 have the capability to scan multiple pages into a single document using the flat glass and not the auto feeder?
Use this when I want to scan a package or any item that won't fit through the auto feeder.
My Officejet Pro 8600 at work does by using a promptor after each page scannned that asks if there are more pages remaining to scan to same document.
If the answer is no, do I have to return my 8620 and purchase an 8600?
Jackimo

Hi Jackimo,
A such can be done by launching the scan from the HP software on your PC.
Open the HP Officejet 8620 software and clcik on Scan a Document or Photo.
Select the PDF option, ensure the scan resolution is set as 300 or below and the Scan Source is set as Flatbed Glass.
As well ensure the Show Scan Preview option is checked and click on Scan.
Use the Plus button below the scan preview to scan additional pages from the glass, click on Save once you are done.

Shlomi

Scanning multiple pages to one file

I have a C310a All in One printer/scanner. My computer uses OS X 10.9 and all the drivers are updated. Is there a way to scan multiple pages to one file. I have tried the three methods mentioned in the HP bulletin for Mavericks but I can only scan one page to one file extension.

Welcome to the forums @BPGeneva ,
I understand you are looking to do a multiple page scan and save it as one file. I will do my best to help! The full driver for the C310a is not available with Mavericks. In having said that, you can try using Image Capture to scan multi-page documents.
Click this link and have a look at PrintDoc's suggestion: Re: Scanning multiple pages into one file using MAC
I hope that helps
