5 Scanning

Scanning with your machine lets you turn pictures and text into digital files on your computer. Then you can fax or e-mail the files, display them on your web site or use them to create projects that you can print using the WIA driver.

This chapter includes:

•Scanning Process with TWAIN-enabled Software

•Scanning Using the WIA Driver

NOTES:

•Check the Operating System(s) that are compatible with your printer. Please refer to the OS Compatibility section of Printer Specifications in your Printer User’s Guide.

•You can check your printer name in the supplied CD- ROM.

•The maximum resolution that can be achieved depends upon various factors, including computer speed, available disk space, memory, the size of the image being scanned, and bit depth settings. Thus, depending on your system and what you are scanning, you may not be able to scan at certain resolutions, especially using enhanced dpi.

Scanning Process with TWAIN- enabled Software

If you want to scan documents using other software, you will need to use TWAIN-compliant software, such as Adobe PhotoDeluxe or Adobe Photoshop. The first time you scan with your machine, select it as your TWAIN source in the application you use.

The basic scanning process involves a number of steps:

1Make sure that your machine and computer are turned on and properly connected to each other.

2Load the document(s) face up into the ADF.

OR

Place a single document face down on the document glass.

3Open an application, such as PhotoDeluxe or Photoshop.

4Open the TWAIN window and set the scan options.

5Scan and save your scanned image.

NOTE: You need to follow the program’s instructions for acquiring an image. Please refer to the user’s guide of the application.
