Windows 10: EZ PDF Document Scanner

I downloaded the EZ PDF Document Scanner from Microsoft to use with my Xerox Documate 3220 scanner. The software works fine until I try to scan a legal size document, it ends up cropping it. I did change the size option in the software to "legal" and it still crops the pdf. Wondering if this is a bug.

MS Office Document Scanner + HP deskjet

Running Windows 10 v.20H2
I recently bought an HP All-in-one Deskjet 2700 Printer. For years I also used the scanner facliity in MS Office 2003-2007 (Microsoft Office Document SCanning), with different printers and in Windows 10. I know it's old (like me) but until now it was fine for me!
But I can't get it to recognise the HP Printer. The MS Office scanner facility was useful as it could scan documents directly into MS Word for editing.
If anyone can suggest a solution, I'd be grateful. HP 2700 has its own scanner but only scans docs into PDF.
Thanks.
Frank
