HP Scanner
HP Scanner is HP's official scanning software for macOS, used to control HP scanner and multifunction printer hardware and process scanned documents. It provides access to scanner features like document feed settings, resolution, color mode, and basic image adjustment. The app works with a wide range of HP flatbed, document feed, and multifunction devices to digitize photos, documents and other materials.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionHP has discontinued development of full-feature scanner drivers for macOS, including native Apple Silicon builds. The Intel-only HP Scanner app will not launch on macOS 28 when Apple removes Rosetta 2 in September 2028. For most HP scanners, Apple's built-in AirPrint and the Image Capture utility (pre-installed on every Mac) provide basic scanning functionality without any separate software. If you need more advanced scanning features — dust removal, batch photo processing, or support for older HP scanners — VueScan is an actively maintained alternative that runs natively on Apple Silicon and supports thousands of HP scanner models, both current and legacy. VueScan is a paid application but offers a free trial. For basic scanning, Image Capture alone is sufficient and requires no installation.
