How does scanning work?

Scanning works like this:

First you choose the drawing, photo, or text you want to scan into your PC.

You then use the Pagis software to select the scan settings, such as paper size, orientation, and scan quality

If the document you want to scan is the width of a normal piece of paper or narrower (8 ½ inches or less), you can feed one sheet at a time through the attached scanner. Before scanning in a document, make sure that the Document Guide is correctly positioned.

If the document is larger, or if it is a page in a book or magazine, you can detach the scanner and place it on the page to scan. The scanner will move across the page as it scans. Note that when scanning in the detached mode, (with your hand on top of the scanner) you must gently guide the scanner; be sure not to press down or push the scanner as it moves across the page.

As you scan the document, the scanner sends the information to the Pagis program on your PC.
