O/T Scanner question

[rainier2004]

Hola:
I recently purchased a HP photsmart scanner/printer/copier. My first scans were great. Now that I want to put some cards up fs, the scanner will NOT scan all the cards at once and is breaking a single scan up into a total of 3-6 scans. For instance, this time I got a scan of 4 cards, 2 cards vertical, 2 cards horizontal and a single card out of a 3x3 grid. The settings are basic and the wife installed this beast. I see no setting on my computer panel but I wouldnt recognize them if they did...and help would be appreciated.

My scanner does similar things, so I put pieces of paper on the sides at angles so make it think that it needs to scan the entire surface, then I crop the scan to the portion that I need.

I suppose that would be what they call the "the brute force method".

There usually is a setting where you can have it detect multiple items, disable this as it helps for those scanning photos but not so good for cards.
