How do you get the HP Deskjet F2480 printer to scan?

Answer 1

place the paper where that thing on top opens and then close it. on the side here is three buttons one with a x and others with gray and green color. if u want the copy in color click on the green and if u want it in black click the gray on. just leave it and it will come out

Monkey above doesn't know the difference between a SCAN and a COPY. The answer they gave was not one for the question asked.

That didn't help either. Just insert picture then open "hp solution center" installed in your pc. A window will appear click on scan pictures. click on "picture to file" then click on scan then click on ok... your pics will be scanned

Answer 2

To get the HP Deskjet F2480 Printer to scan, place a photo or document face down on the scanner. Press the Copy button and the file will be saved in your Documents folder.
