Before you start
- One suitable original and a working local connection between the printer and the iPhone HP app.
Prepare one original and the connected app
Select the reachable printer in the genuine HP app on your iPhone and open its Scan/Printer Scan function. If iOS asks, allow the app’s Local Network access for printer discovery. This uses the printer scanner, not the phone camera.
Use one dry, flat original without staples or clips. This model has a single-page scan path; do not feed a stack or treat it as a multipage automatic document feeder. The written procedure does not require the source’s improvised cardboard support.
Step 1:Load the original before starting the scan
Insert the original into the scanner with its printed side up, aligned fully to the right. Advance it gently until the printer takes hold and the scan light comes on. Let the mechanism move it; do not force or pull the sheet through.
In the app, choose the relevant document settings and start Scan. Wait until the sheet has passed through and the preview is available, then remove the original from the output area.
Step 2:Inspect the captured page
Review every edge and the text in the preview. Adjust the boundaries, rotate the page if necessary and continue with Next/Apply as offered. If the page fed crookedly or important content is missing, rescan it straight instead of accepting the crop.
The source obtains a visibly skewed/cropped preview and discusses editing it. That attempt is not evidence of a clean full-page scan. Assess your own result before saving.
Step 3:Save the PDF and open the saved file
Choose Share/Save, select Basic PDF/PDF and enter a useful file name. Continue to the iPhone share sheet, choose Save to Files, select the intended folder and complete Save.
Open Files, navigate to that folder and open the PDF. Check that the saved page is readable and complete. The recording reaches the share/save workflow but does not independently establish an opened, verified saved file; this last check completes your own task.
