Windows 7; HP ENVY 5530 Scanning:

When scanning a doc/pix/whatever,

1. Why does the scan decide to show the entire doc/pix/whatever grayed-out in the Preview pane, with a bounding box highlighting only one small portion of the scan?

2. Why, even when adjusting the bounding box to encompass the entire doc/pix/whater in the Preview pane, when the scan is saved to file, does the program decide to create any number of "files" by breaking up the doc/image/whatever into small segments -- so when one goes to the scan file there might be, say, 16 files saved + one file that is the complete doc/pix/whatever; there was no option to direct the scanner to do this, but it's just a totally useless outcome . . . then one has to view all 16 files in order to locate the one that is wanted. Really (!) a pointless procedure.

3. How does one adjust the scanner to merely do the simple task of scanning a single doc/pix/whatever?

Thank you / appreciated.
