Automatically detect color
You can use this feature to reduce the size of the scanned file by only saving pages that contain color
as color scans, and saving all other pages as black and white.
To automatically detect color in a scanned image, follow these steps:
1. Open the HP Smart Document Scan Software.
2. Select a scan profile, and then click Edit profile.
3. On the Scan Settings tab of the Profile Settings dialog box, click Image Options, and then
select Auto detect color from the Mode drop-down list.
NOTE: For information about the automatic color detection settings, see the online help for the
scanning software that you are using.
Use the ISIS or TWAIN user interface to automatically detect color when scanning from non-HP
scanning software.
Detect misfeeds
The misfeed (multipick) detection feature stops the scan process if it senses that multiple pages are
fed into the scanner at one time. This feature is enabled by default.
You might want to disable this feature if you are scanning:
● Multipart forms (a use that HP does not recommend).
●
Documents which have labels or sticky notes attached to them.
To change this setting in an HP Smart Document Scan Software profile, follow these steps:
1. Open the HP Smart Document Scan Software.
2. Select a scan profile, and then click Edit profile.
3. On the Scan Settings tab of the Profile Settings dialog box, click Hardware Options, and then
select or clear the Misfeed (multipick) detection check box.
For detailed information on this feature and its options, see the HP Smart Document Scan
Software Help.
NOTE: Use the ISIS or TWAIN user interface to enable misfeed detection when scanning from non-
HP software.
