7 Scanning

Scanning with your machine lets you turn hard copy originals into digital files.

There are two ways to scan originals, one is using the USB cable to directly connect the machine with your computer, and the other is using the network scan feature which scans and sends to a specific destination via the network.

If you want to use the USB cable to scan originals, refer to the Scanning part of Software section. Your machine offers the following ways to scan an image using a local connection.

Via one of the preset imaging applications. Scanning an image launches the selected application, enabling you to control the scanning process.

Via the SmarThru program supplied with your machine.

Via the Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) driver.

If you want to use the network scan feature, press Scan on the display to open three options of Scan to Email, NetScan and Scan to Server.

This chapter gives you information about the scanning method and the different ways to send the scanned file to the destination.
