3Scanning

Scanning with the EPSON Stylus Scan 2500 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 out.

If you’re experienced with scanning, you can use the EPSON Stylus Scan TWAIN interface to scan with applications like Adobe Photoshop® or any other TWAIN-compliant program.

Or, you can use the Smart Panel for all types of scanning with a convenient on-screen control panel.

Your EPSON Stylus Scan also offers quick scanning, which lets you send your scan to a Smart Panel application by simply pressing the ] Scan button on your scanner’s control panel.
