How to create an association in the default programs

My HP printer cannot scan documents directly to my email unless I have create an association.  I use Microsoft outlook to access my hotmail account, so according to the HP support site, I should be able to use outlook to scan directly to my printer to create a Sendable pdf directly to my email.  Whenever I try, he tells me to create an association in the default programs, and I'm fighting to do.  I use Windows 8, if anyone can help I would be grateful.  Thank you.
