HP Scanjet N7710 Document Sheet-feed Scanner - Manual (Page 22)

5 Set up scan profiles
An HP Smart Document Scan Software profile contains settings for scanning, processing,
and saving or sending scanned documents. You can set up profiles for use with the Scan
Document To button on the scanner front panel. The profiles provide a fast, efficient way
to scan. You can configure each profile to perform specific scanning functions that you
use often. For example, if you frequently need to scan originals at 200 dpi color to a
searchable PDF file and e-mail that file to a co-worker, you can create a profile with the
necessary settings to accomplish this task.
Use the HP Smart Document Scan Software to set up and modify profiles. Use the HP
Scanner Tools Utility to assign each profile to a number. After you have assigned a profile
to a number, you can use the profile settings by selecting that number on the scanner
front panel.
NOTE: You can assign up to 30 profiles to numbers that are selectable from the
scanner front panel. If you have more than 30 profiles, assign the most frequently
used profiles to the numbers. You can access all profiles by scanning from the HP
Smart Document Scan Software.
