The information in this chapter pertains to Windows users only.
Note Macintosh users can change the scan settings, such as scan resolution
and color management, for these buttons. For more information, see Change
scan settings.
The customizable buttons provide a fast, efficient way to scan that you can configure for
specific scanning jobs that you perform often.
Windows users can configure these buttons to work with HP Photosmart Software or HP
Smart Document Scan Software, if both HP scanning programs are installed on the
computer. If only one of the programs is installed on the computer, the buttons default
to working with that program.
