Sending to a program

Once you finish viewing and changing the scanned image, you can perform a final scan and send it directly to a program such as e-mail. If the program you want is not available, save the image as a file and insert it into the destination program as you normally would.

Tip If you send text to Word or another word-processing program and the text appears inside a frame you do not want, double-click the frame border and click Remove Frame or a similar command. To prevent this from happening in the future, see "Setting preferences" on page 70.

To send to a program

1On the Scan menu, click Scan To.

2Choose a program from the list and click Scan.

3If the program you select accepts multipage files, you might be asked if you have more pages to scan to this file. Do one of the following:

If this is a one-page item, click Done.

If there are more pages of this item, load the next page in the scanner and click Scan on the computer. Repeat until all pages are scanned. Then, click Done.

The destination program opens and displays the scanned image.
