Scan an original
For original documents or images placed on the glass, you can start a scan from your 
computer or from the HP All-in-One. This section explains the second option: how to scan 
from the control panel of the HP All-in-One to a computer. 
To use the scan features, the HP All-in-One and computer must be connected and turned 
on. The HP Photosmart Software must also be installed and running on your computer
prior to scanning. To verify that the HP Photosmart Software is running on a Windows 
computer, look for the  HP Digital Imaging Monitor icon in the system tray at the lower 
right side of the screen, near the time.
NOTE: Closing the HP Digital Imaging Monitor icon in the Windows system tray 
can cause the HP All-in-One to lose some of its scan functionality. If this happens, 
you can restore full functionality by restarting your computer or by starting the 
HP Photosmart Software.
The HP Photosmart Software that you installed on your computer has many tools that 
you can use to edit and print your scanned image. You can improve the overall image 
quality by adjusting the brightness, sharpness, color tone, or saturation. You can also
crop, straighten, rotate, or resize the image. When the scanned image looks just the way

							Edit a scanned document
You can edit a scanned document using your Optical Character Recognition (OCR) 
software. Scanning text using OCR software enables you to bring the content of magazine 
articles, books, and other printed matter into your favorite word processor and many other 
applications as editable text. Learning to use OCR software correctly is important if you
want to obtain the best results. Do not expect scanned text documents to be letter-perfect
the first time you use your OCR software. Using OCR software is an art that takes time 
and practice to master.
