Performing a new scan

Once you start a new scan, the scanner does a preliminary scan of the
item and displays the scanned image in the HP PrecisionScan Pro
software. Then, you can see the scanned image and edit it, if
necessary, before sending it to a destination or saving it as a file.

This scanned image is the preview image. You can make changes,

When you send the image to another program such as e-mail, place
the image on a website, or save it as a file, the scanner performs a final
scan of the item that includes any changes you made. Directions for
making optional adjustments and completing the scan appear in this
section.
