ABOUT THE ONETOUCH BUTTON PANEL’S 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 and 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 in the examples above, means your computer does not have appropriate software for the initial factory settings (Fax software in the example above). 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.

See “Configuring the OneTouch Buttons” on page 35 to change the settings of the buttons on the OneTouch Button Panel.

SCANNING FROM OTHER SOFTWARE

In addition to scanning from the scanner buttons and the OneTouch Button Panel, you can scan directly from PaperPort and other software. See the sections “Scanning from PaperPort” on page 95 and “Scanning with the Windows Image Acquisition” on page 119 for details.
