Automatic Scan

Question

Windows

Good afternoon gentlemen, I need your help.
You need to set up scanning from an MFP (HP PSC 1410) in such a way that when you click the scan button, the automatically prepared file is saved on a local disk with a name like "$date$ - $time$". Quick googling didn't help.

OS - Windows 8

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Em. Honestly, for a long time I haven’t seen MFPs connecting locally to a computer, but in those that I saw, there was a Scan, Scan + OCR, Print and Email button everywhere. Usually, on click, with correctly installed drivers in Windows, to which the piece of hardware was connected, a window popped up with a Preview of the scanned material, and the question “What should I do?” Save, send to mail.
in the same HP / Sasung'ah. I remember in the drivers your requirement could be implemented right out of the box. You run the setup wizard once, and say how you want to use the hardware buttons on the device, after which you get either PDF / Jpeg / Tiff / Bmp on disk, or an email client window with a file attached to it, or in HP your simple editor with OCR ' image and Russian texts, including

IrfanView seems to be able to do this:

The only negative is that it is not a timestamp, but a sequence number.
But if there is Cygwin, then renaming is done in one line:

find . -name 'ScanImage*.png' | while read f; do mv "$f" "$(date +%Y.%m.%d-%H.%M.%S $f).png"; done

Plus, IrfanView itself has a separate batch rename.
