>I have an old (don't remember when we bought it) printer HP C6300 - All in One. I wanted to test how to scan a document into a USB drive plugged into the printer. After I go through the steps (not complicated) I see on the USB stick a file .HPIMAGE.VFS. It looks like this file (by date and time) has all images that I scanned. Or maybe not. But when I plug the USB into the computer and try to open this file, I get nowhere. I looked through the user manual (online) and no reference to this format. Googling didn't produce any useful result.

If you Google [.HPIMAGE.VFS] it looks like that's just a thumbnails file. Are the actual scan files in another folder on the USB stick?

Are you sure you were doing the full scan and save, rather than just a prescan/preview?

Do you have any options for saving such as destination folder, file type (TIFF, PDF etc)?

Does the stick need a specific format e.g. FAT32? (NTFS may not work)
