ABOUT THE ONETOUCH BUTTON PANEL’S NAMES AND ICONS

The names on the OneTouch Button Panel correspond to the scanner buttons, and the icons indicate their Destination Applications. You can change the Destination Application and any other settings of a button.

The eMail button is set up to scan documents, then immediately attach them to a new email message in your default eMail program. If you don’t have an email program on your computer, the button will have a question mark as its icon.

The Copy button is set up to send the scanned image directly to your computer’s printer, copier, or fax machine without opening the scanned image in an application. This essentially means you can use your scanner as if it is a copier.

The Scan button is pre-configured to scan your documents in the PDF format then open them in the PaperPort application that you received with your scanner. You can then use the features of PaperPort to work with the image.

If you want to use another application to work with your scanned images you can change the Destination Application and settings of a button. For example, if you scan a lot of documents that have faint images, such as hand-drawn sketches in light pencil, you might want to

change the Destination Application to Microsoft Paint®, or some other drawing program.

A special pre-configured setting for your scanner is the Transfer to Storage option, indicated by the folder icon on the Button Panel. This option is designed for archiving documents. When you scan with Transfer to Storage as the Destination Application, the scanner sends the scanned image directly to the default folder at C:\Documents and

Settings\<your user name>\My Documents\My OneTouch Archive\PDF Documents without first opening it in an application. The file will be named with the current date. Initially, none of the three scanner buttons are assigned this setting, but if you want to use the scanner for archiving documents, you can easily choose this pre- configured setting for a button.

See the next section, “Configuring the OneTouch Buttons,” to change the settings of the buttons on the OneTouch Button Panel.
