HP 4620 - Manual (Page 41)

3 Scan
You can use the printer’s control panel to scan documents, photos, and other originals
and send them to a variety of destinations, such as a folder on a computer. You can
also scan these originals from your computer using either the HP software provided
with the printer or TWAIN-compliant or WIA-compliant programs.
When scanning documents, you can use the HP software to scan documents into
a format that you can search, copy, paste, and edit.
NOTE: The HP scanning software does not support TWAIN and WIA scanning on
computers running Mac OS X.
NOTE: Some scan functions are only available after you install the HP software.
If you have problems scanning documents, see Solve scan problems.
