Question

Installing 2nd scanner to Photoshop

NEVER MIND, THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO HAVE CURED ITSELF. (See below)

 

I have a Canon LIDE 110 connected to Photoshop CC 2020. I also have an HP 2600 combination color printer/scanner that I'd like to use with Pshop as well.

 

I'm able to print from Pshop onto the 2600, but when I hit "Import > WIA Support," I don't have an option to choose between scanners, I can only scan from the Canon.

 

Any suggestions how to install this second scanner? As I said, the 2600 does prints from Photoshop, so the two units are already in communication. It's probably just a simple connection - but I have no idea how to go about it. Thanx much!

I don't know what happened, but it looks like the color printer/scanner hooked itself up to my computer. I upgraded from Photoshop CC 2018 to 2020 earlier tonight, so maybe that's what did the trick. Now when I click the Start button on the WIA window, a smaller, "Select Device" window opens that lets me choose between the scanners. Anyway, thanx for offering your help.
