Hello Mac People,

I have a Mac Book Pro using OS X 10.6.8 and I have just installed a HP Printer/Scanner to help simplify my life and be nicer to the environment by trying to go all electronic with my docs. I need to know how to set a folder preference for when I scan documents so all of my docs can go to a designated folder. Sounds simple enough but I can't seem to find where to go on Preferences. Help?

Start your Scanner and check for a "Scan To" pull-down menu where each scan will be saved.

Usually this is set by default to "Pictures" but I always change mine to "Desktop" & it stays at that setting until I change it.

At least this is my experience with my Canon scanner/printer/copier.

Spawn_Dooley is correct. I use VueScan for scanning documents, and one of its options is entitled "Default Folder". The scanning software that came with your printer should have something similar.
