Change copy speed or quality
The HP All-in-One, provides three options, indicated by one, two, or three stars, that affect
copy speed and quality:
• One star copies faster than the other two quality settings. On plain paper, the text is
comparable to the quality of two stars, but the graphics might be of lower quality. This
setting uses less ink and extends the life of your print cartridges.
NOTE: This setting is not available when the HP All-in-One detects photo paper.
•Two stars delivers high-quality output and is the recommended setting for most of
your copying. Two stars copies faster than the three stars quality setting.
• Three stars produces the highest quality output for all paper and eliminates the
banding (striping) effect that sometimes  occurs in solid areas. Three stars copies
slower than the other quality settings.
To change the copy quality

Resize an original to fit onto letter or A4 paper
You can use the Resize to Fit feature to copy an original to fit within the printable margins
of a page without the risk of cropping some part of your original. This is useful for reducing
or enlarging an original. For example:
• If you enlarge a 10 x 15 cm (4 x 6 inch) photo to make a borderless full-size copy on
letter or A4 paper, some part of your photo will be cropped. The  Resize to Fit feature
will enlarge the photo as much as possible to fit the page without cropping any part
of your photo.
• If the image or text on your original fills the entire sheet of paper with no margins, you
can use the  Resize to Fit  feature to reduce your original and prevent unwanted
cropping of the text or images at the edges of the sheet.
NOTE: In order to resize your original without changing the proportions or cropping
the edges, the HP All-in-One might leave  an uneven amount of white space around
the edges of the paper.
To resize a document from the control panel
1. Load paper in the input tray.

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.

Recognition (OCR) software might not be installed on your computer. To install the
OCR software, you must re-insert the software disk and select  OCR under the
Custom  installation options.
