Use software to scan straight to e-mail

PaperPort software allows you to change file format of your document before you e-mail it.

Having the ability to send your scans straight to e-mail offers numerous conveniences:

• Reduce paper use
  Since there’s nothing to print and nothing to fax, these features cut down on the amount of paper you use—ultimately helping you save money.
• Save time
  Without this feature, you’d need to scan a document to your PC, then compose your e-mail in a separate program, and then attach the scan to your e-mail by browsing through your files to locate your saved scan.
• Choose your file format
  With PaperPort software, you can easily change the file format of your document before you e-mail it. For example, if you’re not sure whether a recipient has Microsoft Word, you can convert your Word document to a PDF, a universal format.

The Send To bar spreads across the entire bottom of the PaperPort home screen.

To add a new program to the Send To bar, right-click anywhere on the bar and select the option that says Send To Bar. Next, choose New Program Link and follow the prompts.

PaperPort software allows you to scan to e-mail and is included with select HP Scanners, such as the HP Scanjet 5000 Sheet-feed Scanner.

Install PaperPort software
To install your PaperPort software, simply place the PaperPort CD into your computer’s disc drive and follow the prompts on your computer screen.
