Scanner On An Hp Photosmart C4780

[Whatevs]

It's driving me nuts. I'm scanning in 1 page with 3 images and it gives me 3 separate images on 3 separate docs. I just want a scanned image of what I'm scanning on 1 page!! Any ideas?

In your options de-select save images as separate files.

Extract from the HP Help file regarding scanning of multiple pictures:
During the preview, the HP Scanning software displays all of the pictures that were scanned. Each scanned picture has a dashed border. The dashed border indicates that the HP scanning software has selected the picture for scanning. Any area with a dashed border is referred to as a “selection.”
One selection is highlighted while the other selections appear faded. The highlighted selection is the “current selection.”

If you "grab" the bottom right corner of the highlighted selection and drag it to cover the other faded selections and then click on "Accept all" that should do what you want.
