ABOUT USB MEMORY

USB memory devices are available with a variety of memory capacities to give you more room for storing documents, presentations, downloaded music and videos, high resolution photographs, or whatever other files you want to store or move.

You can do the following on your machine using a USB memory device:

If your USB memory device has certain features, such as security settings and password settings, your machine may not automatically detect it. For details about these features, see device’s User’s Guide.

You can scan a document and save the scanned image onto a USB memory device. There are two ways of doing this: you can scan to the device using the default settings, or you can customize your own scan settings.

Scanning

5.Press Color Start or Black Start when Ready to Scan to USB appears.

Regardless of the button you press, the color mode is decided as customized. (See “Customizing Scan to USB” on page 59.)
