scan from the ADF
The HP Scanjet 4500c and 5550c scanners support the use of an automatic
document feeder (ADF), which allows you to scan multiple-page items quickly and
easily.
For more information about the ADF, see ADF - hp scanjet 4500c/5550c in
the HP Photo & Imaging software Help.
scan from the APF
The HP Scanjet 4570c and 5500c scanners support the use of an automatic photo
feeder (APF), which allows you to scan multiple photos quickly and easily.
For more information about the APF, see APF - hp scanjet 4570c/5500c in
the HP Photo & Imaging software Help.
scan slides or negatives
You can use the optional HP Scanjet transparent materials adapter (TMA) to scan
35 mm slides or negatives. To do so, use the HP Scanning software rather than
the scanning buttons.
For more information about the TMA, see TMA - hp scanjet 4500c/5500c
series in the HP Photo & Imaging software Help.
If instant scanning is enabled, you can scan right away even after
you have pressed the P
OWER SAVE button.
Instant scanning does not function while you are using the TMA.
To prevent damage to your photos:
• do not use the APF to scan photos that are fragile, damaged,
or irreplaceable
• do not use the APF to scan the same photo more than 5
times
