TR8500 Series, Scan to cloud, ADF-Problem

JoergL — Sun, 23 Sep 2018 09:05:14 GMT

Hi there,

I’m quite new to the Pixma TR8550 and I have a question.

I want to put several, not related, documents on the Auto document feeder (ADF) and want to scan them directly to the cloud from the device without a computer.

I have tried several settings and cloud targets (Evernote & Google Drive) but every time the were only one single PDF file created, but I want to have a PDF for each document.

Could please some one help me?

With the IJ Scan utility this is possible, but not on the device directly.

What I’m doing wrong?

thanks Joerg

Hi JoergL,

When going through the scan process, what is chosen for "Select Source"?

Hi Patrick,

The process is:

put documents, 2 pages, in the adf
select scan
Select save to cloud
select Google Drive
select next
Scan settings as attached
result as attached (2 pages file)

thanks

Joerg

Next to Select Source, please choose "Document".

I have tried this already, but then it’s not taking the documents fro the ADF but scanning the empty scan plate

Any more idea on that topic?
