How to Scan a Document on HP Printer

If your HP printer has an integrated scanner assembly, you can quickly scan your documents and save them in a digital format. The scanner assembly can be flatbed or Automatic Document Feeder (ADF). The flatbed scanner allows you to scan a single standard-size document at once but the latter supports scanning multiple documents.

If you want to scan the documents with more smart functions, you can use the HP Smart app or HP Assistant tool or use the Windows Fax and Scan application—a built-in scanning tool on Windows computers.
