Scan options
If you select Document and save the scan to a File, the scan is saved as a document (.pdf
or .rtf) file, even if the original is a photo. If you select Photo, a text document will be
scanned as an image file, and cannot be read by optical character recognition (OCR)
software.
If your printer is connected to a network, more than one computer name will appear in
this list. If your printer is connected to a printer by the USB cable, the computer name in the
menu is called USB Connected Computer.
You must create a list of one or more applications using Home Center software for any
to display by name in the Scan Destination settings. Each application will appear as a
separate setting in the display. (Kodak Home Center software is displayed by default; you
do not need to configure your destinations to include it.)
In addition, before using a Scan Destination setting of File, familiarize yourself with the
location where the files will be saved and with the file naming setting. This will prevent
problems later in finding the scan file on your computer.
