Every time the HP LaserJet Scan software is used, an HPPSCAN5.LOG file is generated in the current
user's temporary directory. The HPPSCAN5.LOG file appends after every scan, and develops a log of
operations that helps troubleshoot scanning problems. To gain access to the log file, follow these steps:
1. Click Start and then click Run....
2. Type %TEMP% in the Open: field and then click OK.
3. Double-click the hppscan5.log file in the window that opens.
Selecting the third-party destination option saves the scanned image in a file of the specified file type.
The HP LaserJet Scan software then starts the specified software program by appending the filename
after the software filename. Because the HP LaserJet Scan software does not support automatic
discovery of software programs, you must specify the correct software program and specify a file type
that your program supports.
