ABOUT THE ONETOUCH BUTTON PANELS NAMES AND ICONS

The button names, such as PDF, eMail or Fax, indicate the original factory settings for a button. For example, the eMail button is set up to scan documents then immediately attach them to a new email message in Microsoft Outlook Express®. But you can change the name, the Destination Application, and any of the other aspects of the button.

A question mark for a button, such as shown for button 5, means your computer does not have appropriate software for the initial factory settings (Fax software in this example). In that case, you would probably want to change the name and Destination Application to something else. 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 button’s name to Sketches, and the Destination Application to Microsoft Paint, or some other drawing program.

A folder icon for a button, such as shown for buttons 1, 2, and 7, means that the scanner sends the scanned image to the default folder at

C:\Documents and Settings\<your user name>\My Documents\My OneTouch Archive\PDF Documents without first opening it in a Destination Application. To see the scanned image, open the file using the appropriate application for the file’s format. The file will be named with the current date. Buttons 1 and 7 are preset to scan documents into the PDF format. Button 2 scans to the sPDF format. Use an application that can read the PDF or sPDF format to open the scanned document.

See “Configuring the OneTouch Buttons” on page 39 to change the settings of the buttons on the OneTouch Button Panel.
