Scanning Basics | Samsung SCX-4720FS, SCX-4520S guide

Scanning Basics

Your SCX-4x20 Series offers four ways to scan. These are:

•From the control panel on your machine to an application: Use the Scan-tobutton on the control panel to initiate scanning. Assign the TWAIN-compliant software, such as Adobe Photo Deluxe or Adobe Photoshop, to the machine by selecting it from the list of available applications via the Scan-tobutton. Before assigning the software program, you must configure the scan list using the Printer Settings Utility. For details, see page 2.37.

•From the Samsung SmarThru software: Launch Samsung SmarThru and open Scan To to begin scanning. See page 6.4.

•From the Windows Images Acquisition (WIA) driver: Your machine also supports the WIA driver for scanning images. See page 6.7.

•From a USB flash drive: When you insert a USB flash drive into the USB port in the front of your machine, you can scan and save documents in the USB flash drive by pressing Scan-to. For details, see page 6.8.

•From the optional Network Scan Program (SCX-4720F/ 4720FS only): Your machine use the Network Scan program for scanning images. See page 6.9.

NOTES:

•To scan with your machine, you must install the MFP driver.

•Scanning is done through the same LPT or USB port currently assigned for your printer port.
