Getting Started Guide

Use the sleeve for the following types of documents:

>Envelopes, checks, or receipts

>Photographs or fragile documents

>Curled, wrinkled, creased, thin, or torn paper

>Carbon, coated, onion skin, or glossy paper

Note: Do not feed anything thicker than a normal sheet of paper into the scanner. For example, you cannot scan credit cards or a driver’s license. Doing so will damage your sleeve and the scanner.

Scanning with the computer

To scan and save files on your PC, the Compaq A4000 provides a standard TWAIN interface for scanning documents. TWAIN is a common scanner interface supported by many application programs. Because the A4000 supports TWAIN, it is compatible with a wide range of software.

To perform a scan using Ulead Photo Express (included with your A4000 software), complete the following steps:

1Place the document in the scanner feeder, as described in “Loading documents” on page 21.

2Start Photo Express. From the Start menu, click:

Programs Ulead Photo Express 4.0 Photo Express

3Open the File menu and choose Acquire Scanner. Make sure that the selected scanner is set to Compaq A4000.

4 Select the Acquire button at the bottom of the screen.

5 The Compaq A4000 TWAIN scanning dialog will appear, as shown.
