HP Photosmart Macintosh software
When you install the HP scanning software on a Macintosh, two software programs are
available in the Dock: HP Device Manager and HP Photosmart Studio. These programs
are used for scanning and editing your scans.
HP Device Manager is the program that gets you started scanning
pictures and documents. From the Device Manager you can:
● Perform scanning and copy functions
● Access help and troubleshooting information
● Access the HP Photosmart Studio to edit your scans
● Modify settings and preferences
HP Photosmart Studio is the program to use for manipulating,
printing, archiving, and sharing your images after they have been
scanned. You can open HP Photosmart Studio from the Dock, or
from the HP Device Manager Applications menu.
