Has anyone tried the eStorage Print App? I'm wondering if I can scan directly to Google Drive or Box.com with a single button press.

Hi Ryan, I just tried scanning to Google Drive, so you have to press the apps button, then estorage app, then log in to Google Drive, press scan and confirm that you want it sent to Google Drive. All in all I say it took 90 seconds, it would probably be half the time if I didn't have to log in to Google Drive. Hope this helps answer your question. Best, Jason

google it and it will tell you how as with Jason's answer you are always going to have to sign into Google Drive I have a Chromebox and have to sign in to Google Drive when I print from that computer but not from my Mac AIO or my gaming PC.

I have not yet succeeded how to scan directly, but I believe it can be done... the usb stick works very nicely though...i keep it plugged into the printer all the time, then when i scan something, i just move it over to my iMac and upload it ! that way i have whatever i've scanned backed up on the "stick" and in my computer.

Evidently your needs are much more complicated than mine. I have not tried to scan to a USB drive. However, I HAVE scanned several documents into my computer (Easy to set up) and then transferred to a USB drive from the computer. I realize that I have not answered your question but this solution is only one click extra and very fast.

Not at all!! I have to scan my print about 15 times before it finally opens. My wife has the same issues so I know it's not just my print. Probably just going to set the key out nearby for easy access. Definitely not quickly or reliably accessible.

That was the easy part for me. The scan worked well, but the retrieval of it for filing is slow slow slow. Honestly, I have gone back to my Epson GT-S50 - its fast and I scan to my gmail drive so it puts it in the cloud. I do have the small NeatConnect scanner and I like that for travel, but the NeatConnect - I would save your money

No - if you haven't bought it don't! I bought one several years ago - it worked for about a month. It was glitchy and cumbersome to use. Brother, who makesthe scanner had little/no support.

No. My biggest problem was finding JUST a printer......I hate combo all-in-ones....and my scanner works fine. But overall I SWEAR by Canon printers....been using Canon since dot matrix days!

I just tried importing with Doxie docs and pics scanned from other devices. It would not do this task. Doxie gave me the error message that these items were not scanned by Doxie. This is a great scanner but will not do what yu ask. I would contact Doxie to see if there is a workaround.

Yes, there is a flatbed scanner and it works beautifully. You can scan it to a .tif file or other formats, but you have to have the HP software dialog box open. On the minus side, the scanner is set to scan at "millions of colors" and can't be readjusted except manually, with each thing you scan. You have to click through a lot of dialogue boxes. Another reviewer mentioned scanning to .pdf, but I haven't been able to find that feature despite several hours trying. I use a separate app, ScantoPDF, but with about 7 clicks per page necessary to make a scan, I wouldn't call the process here blazingly fast.

The printer has a scanning function that can only be accessed via on your computer. There is no actual button on the printer.

I haven't tried. It does do a scan and email it to me so I suspect it would copy also.

Sorry for the delayed answer, I haven't tried that, I normally scan then "ink" digitally.

Hi, Can anyone confirme if (in Snow Leopard) the ImageCapture or Preview app can scan from this scanner (if USB connected) ?I wouldn't like to use brother's software...Thanks very much,Dany.

it didn't seen to be at first, but there is an ICON called "IJ SCAN Utility" this does everything for you. It will copy and scan negatives and slides etc, just by pushing that button. It puts up a white rectangle, with about five choices in it, and you simply click what you want it to do. There is a complete manual that installs on your PC too. But reading that is more difficult then using the icon. rr

Hi Chad Kessler, You posted this a LONG time ago -- about 14 months ago -- and didn't get any replies. Maybe you're still monitoring it, or maybe you found an answer elsewhere. Anyhow, I thought I'd toss in a tip anyhow. No, I don't know what the problem is, or exactly how to fix it. But elsewhere on these discussion boards (leastways, a year ago) was a fellow named Wayne. I THNK it was Wayne Fulton. I remember he was a fount of knowledge about scanning, always quite generous. Now, just this week, I came across a website set up by Wayne Fulton (I believe the same guy): scantips with the www and the dot-com as appropriate. He's literally written an entire book about scanning there (a 101 basic book AND a 201 intermediate book). It's actually a bit more than mere basic stuff. He's been a lifesaver to me. He even provides his email address and might be willing and able to answer a question directly, although I think you'd want to check through his writings first to see if he offers any insights. Maybe this is a year late, and the problem was long ago solved. But if not, check out Wayne's website.

Yes, Epson's recommendation is correct. Double-clicking the scanner in the print & scan section of system preferences gives you Apple's rudimentary scanning capability. I highly recommend a third-party scanning program like VueScan.

This printer does not have scanning capabilities; its just a bare bones quick and efficient printer. Though I'm sure they have a model that does.
