Hello dennis110339,
Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!
Regarding the question on the Photosmart 5520 is not unable to print or scan, I want to help. Since you have Windows 8.1, I would suggest running printing HP and Scan Dr.
Let me know the results of printing and scanning Dr, what passes, falls down, take the test print print, etc..
Also, how the printer is connected to the computer, USB or wireless?
See you soon,.

I have microsoft scan software and a jet hp6500 office printer, scanner etc. How can I scan to a PDF file?
Hello Jim,
I will suggest 2 things. First, go to hp.com site and select your device from the five listed here (http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html).
Second suggestion is that you use the HP software to scan your document, where the native format is PDF.
Let me know if this helps you.
Kind regards

'C:\Program HP HP Photosmart 7520 7520 Photosmart series.exe series\Bin\HP' - UDCDevicePage to start
Opens the Printer Wizard > select "scan a Photo Document or ' > select 'Scan to File."
The chart in the example:
At the bottom of the "HP Scan" menu, you'd like to put in place a shortcut customized for your scan options - the shortcut contains the parameters for the analysis you select and then appear at the bottom of the list of available scan options.
Create Shortcut Wizard for the printer on your desktop:
- Right click on a clear view of your desktop > new > shortcut
- Select the location (command) for your new shortcut:
'C:\Program HP HP Photosmart 7520 7520 Photosmart series.exe series\Bin\HP' - UDCDevicePage to start

Adding Pages scanned in existing PDF files
Hi all
I'll try to find a way to add new pages to existing PDF file.
Is it possible to scan new pages directly to the existing PDF file?
According to the current help files, it shows in the following 2 ways:
1. combine multiple files of multiple type after scanning and save the file to the local computer.
2. let continue scanning when scanning additional pages.
But how we can scan the new pages in existing file and the open PDF.
Concerning
Kirubaa
You use what Version of Acrobat? For Acrobat 11.0.4 If you have a PDF document is opened and as you scan a document it will automatically add to the existing PDF. For other versions, you must go to custom scan and select "Add to the existing file or portfolio" whenever you want to add.
Thank you

How to scan a document of several pages in a single pdf file using the psc 2510?
I have Windows 7, but the downloadable drivers for this OS, I cannot scan to a pdf file.
Hi shepp066,
I understand that you have a PSC 2510 used with Windows 7 that you want to use to analyze PDF files.
Because your printer doesn't have any HP software for the operating system that you use I don't have a way for you to scan in PDF format. You want to look into some 3rd party scanning programs, and you can start by doing some research to CNET downloads because that's where I do a lot of my own research
Hope this helps, have a nice day!

How do scan you a PDF, jpg or png on the M127fw?
I just bought the M127fw and I can't understand how scanning to a PDF file or other file type: .jpg, .png, etc.. The front buffer on the poster printer only copy, fax and applications. The printer box comes in says it's also a scanner. Do I have to install something on my computer to scan to a file .jpg or other type of file?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi BobV365,
I see by your post that you would like to know how to scan.
I can help you with this problem.You need to install the printer on the computer software to analyze.
I have provided a document to see how to navigate through the HP software.
Just select your operating system from the list. Scan.
If there is anything else I can help you with just let me know.
Good day!
Thank you. -
I have a HP Officejet 6500 E710n-z (network) that I use at home to scan to a PDF file, and I know exactly how to move the cursor from the 'Smaller' in 'best quality '.
However, the size of PDF files are far too large when the picture quality is acceptable, and if I move the cursor to reduce the size of the image would become unacceptable. It is impossible to scan a legal document of more than a few readable pages without producing a volume of file too large for email. I have to divide these scanned documents into pieces of 3-4 page.
A simple disclosure form HOA, to 220 DPI and the cursor in the middle of balance, a page produces a PDF 699ko. I used the other scanners printer to work (different brands) to the same 200 DPI which translates documents very clear less than 100 K per page.
In my view, that there is something wrong with the algorithm of scan-to-PDF of HP. The problem must be due to a qualified (or defective) software design. That you need HP or third-party developer (and developer staff supervision) take this seriously - compare HP vs other scanners brand PDF files - and update the drivers from HP for this problem?
Thanks for the reply. My problem was scanning and sending 10 or more pages of legal documents, that came out of the scanner to approximately 700 KB per page with the last parameters of previous compromise. The 10-page document has been an unacceptable 7Mo.
However, after posting the problem I went on a process of trial and error throrough with 200 vs 300 dpi, 0 to 100% increments of cursor, and p.c. / color / gray. I got an acceptable 200 KB per page by using the grayscale 200 dpi and weight 90% - 10% for smaller size. I have my paper of 10 pages to an acceptable 2 MB.
But I have always problems with contracts of 30-50 page where each page must be initialled by four parties, scanning and return back several times.
Kind regards.

PDF file needs to be scanned on my desk
Greetings,
I have a PDF file that is already created on my desktop. is there a way I can scan without having to print first and then analyze the printed version?
Thanks for any help.
I have MacBook Pro OSX 10.8.5
Appreciate any help.
Warmly and gratefully.
Harvey
Hello
You already have a soft copy why do you need to start a new search? I can't work on the rationale. If you want to test your printer, you need to print and scan then because to be able to scan, you need something on the glass.
Kind regards.
