the HP scanning software for Mac.

Check the status of the printer

If you sent a print or copy job before you tried to scan, the scan starts if the scanner is not

busy. However, the printing and scanning processes share memory, which means that the

scan might be slower.

Part of the document did not scan or text is missing

Check the original

Make sure that you loaded the original correctly. For more information, see Load an original

on the scanner glass on page 14 or Load an original in the automatic document feeder

(ADF) on page 15.

If you scanned the document from the ADF, try scanning the document directly from the

scanner glass. For more information, see Load an original on the scanner glass

on page 14.

Colored backgrounds can cause images in the foreground to blend into the background.

Try adjusting the settings before you scan the original, or try enhancing the image after you

scan the original.

Check the settings

Make sure that the input paper size is large enough for the original that you are scanning.

If you are using the HP Printer Software, the default settings in the HP Printer Software

might be set to automatically perform a specific task other than the one that you are

attempting. See the on-screen Help for the HP Printer Software for instructions about

changing the properties.
