I cannot figure out how to scan multiple pages into one document using my hp envy 5530 and then send them in my AOL email as an attachment

What do you mean scan? Is it from the printer to the computer? Or just plain copy? When you want to scan to the computer, you need a software that can scan multiple pages. HP's document feeder can copy and fax multiple pages, so if the software supports multiple pages scanning, then I'm sure it can.

Single scan printers can be difficult in this manner.\

Consider using the OCR (optical character recognition) software that came with your scanner.

Basically the part of the software that asks you what you are scanning (picture, document, newspaper) and make sure to select document. This will enable the character recognition which will convert the scanned picture into a document that you can configure to go into Microsoft Word or Notepad or whatever. If you have multiple pages, it MIGHT give you the option to scan more than one page at a sitting. then again, it may not. In which case you might be kicking yourself for not purchasing the scanner with the auto feed attachment! Once you have made your scanned document in your word processor - READ THROUGH IT! may have converted characters incorrectly - like an "S" may be now a "$" it happens - and it will happen. When done, attach complete document to email and BOOM done.

Either this or use a fax machine :)

hope i helped!

Scan all, then copy to the word document. You can edit your file into small so that you can put several file in single pages.

SOURCE: scan multiple page documents

On my scanner, I feed the documents on the ADF feeder (paper feeder) and when it finishes one scan, I tell it to continue. It will scan all you docs and put it in on file that you can send as one attachment.

Hi There !!

Thank you for choosing fixya.com

It is possible to scan different batches scanned from the ADF into one PDF file. When loading more pages in the ADF after the first realm is finished, it asks if you want to continue scanning to the same file. After that, it will continue scanning to the same file. However, this feature can be selected in the Adobe Acrobat application itself. From HP software, if we load the paper after one realm of paper in the ADF is finished, it will scan the second realm to a different file. If you want to continue scanning to the same file, you need to have either Acrobat Exchange or Adobe Acrobat installed on the computer. Adobe Reader will not provide this feature. After installing either Adobe Acrobat or Acrobat Exchange, perform the following steps to scan pages to a single file:

1. Make sure your scanner is turned on.
2. Start Acrobat Exchange or Adobe Acrobat.
3. Put the document into the scanner (usually face down on the scan bed).
4. In Adobe Acrobat, click File , then Import , and Scan .
5. Select the device and whether you are scanning a single- or double-sided document.
6. The scanning software opens and the scanner completes a preview scan.
7. When the preview scan comes up, make any adjustments you would like, including selecting the area you want to appear in the final scan.
8. Click Scan . This will get the final scan into the computer.
9. Your scanning software should take you back to Adobe Acrobat.
10. In Adobe Acrobat, you should see a small window asking you if you want to scan another page. If the document you are scanning has more than one page, click the Next Page button. If this is the only page, click Done .
    NOTE: Scanning multiple pages causes each page to append to the previously scanned page. If you have multiple pages, but want them to be in different files, click Done after each page to create separate files.
11. When you have scanned the last page, click Done on the window described in step 10.
12. Your scanned pages will open in Adobe Acrobat. Scroll through to make sure that everything is there.
13. Click File , and then Save As to name your file and save it.
