Scanning with your machine lets you turn pictures and text into digital files on your computer. Then you can upload them on your web site or use them to create projects that you can print using Samsung SmarThru program or the WIA driver.

Your machine offers the following ways to scan an image:

•From TWAIN-compliant software: You can use other software including Adobe Photoshop Deluxe and Adobe Photoshop.

•From the Windows Images Acquisition (WIA) driver: Your machine supports the WIA driver for scanning images.

•From the Samsung SmarThru software: Launch Samsung SmarThru and open Scan To to begin scanning.

NOTE: To scan with your machine, you must install the software. For details about installing the software, see the Software Section.
