1. From the main menu of Canon PRINT, select Smartphone Copy.

   

    If you receive a prompt stating that Canon PRINT wants to access your camera, select While using the app or the appropriate affirmative response.

    You may be asked to specify a folder to save the picture you take. Specify the folder as needed. Select Allow or the appropriate affirmative response after selecting the desired save folder.

2. Hold a document or photo in front of the camera. Try to keep the document or photo as straight as possible while keeping it entirely in frame.
