What’s right for you?
HP offers a variety of single-function and multifunction scanning devices, but how do you
choose the right one? Start by thinking about how you use scanning in your office.
What will you scan?
Choose the device that can handle your workload
In general, single-function scanners are better suited to frequent, high-volume jobs, while
MFPs or All-in-Ones work well for occasional scanning.
MFPs/AiOs that do not have an ADF can handle basic, one-page scan jobs at the flatbed.
Devices with ADFs make scanning multiple pages easier. For big jobs, devices with faster scan
speeds, larger ADF input capacities, and support for single-pass, two-sided scanning can help
save time.
Choose the device that can handle your materials
The ADFs on HP Pro MFPs/AiOs and on HP ScanJet Pro flatbed scanners can easily handle
standard paper sizes and weights.
The HP ScanJet sheet-feed scanner ADF features a straight-through media path that supports
more media types, including plastic-coated ID cards and heavier materials. The HP ScanJet Pro
3000 s3 supports a broad range of media sizes and weights from 40 to 413 g/m

and up to
309.9 cm long.
The HP ScanJet Pro 3000 s3, 3500 f1, and 4500 fn1 include HP EveryPage and an ultrasonic
sensor

that help you confidently feed and capture scans—including mixed stacks of various
media weights and sizes—at high speeds.
If you need to scan irregular, fragile, or 3D materials, you should choose an MFP/AiO or scanner
with a flatbed.

How will you use your scans?
Choose document capture and image enhancement features
In general, MFPs and All-in-Ones have basic capture and imaging options. Some models allow
you to create searchable PDFs.
ScanJet scanners make digitising documents more efficient. Users can automatically crop,
recolour, resize and deskew scans—and even remove blank pages. Optical character
recognition (OCR) allows users to convert a document image into an editable text file.
Choose scan processing features
HP MFPs/AiOs and flatbed scanners offer basic send-to destinations, like scan to email, PC,
USB, network folder, or the cloud. HP PageWide Pro MFPs can integrate with optional workflow
solutions like HP Capture and Route.

HP ScanJet sheet-feed scanners allow you to send to more destinations, including Microsoft®
SharePoint® and various cloud destinations such as Google Drive
TM
and Dropbox. HP ScanJet
Pro 3000 s3 can also send scans directly to mobile devices using the HP JetAdvantage Capture
App and an optional wireless adapter.
