This chapter includes:

•Scanning Using Samsung SmarThru

•Scanning Process with TWAIN-enabled Software

NOTES:

•Check the Operating System(s) that are compatible with your printer. Please refer to the OS Compatibility section of Printer Specifications in your Printer User’s Guide.

Thus, depending on your system and what you are scanning, you may not be able to scan at certain resolutions, especially using enhanced dpi.
