Scanning a Document or Photo

You can use your Artisan 700 Series to scan original documents and photos and save them as digital files on your computer.

■Windows:

Double-click the EPSON Scan icon on your desktop.

■Macintosh:

■If you are scanning from an application, start your application. Then open the File menu, choose Import or Acquire, and select your Artisan 700 Series (if necessary).
