Scanning from a Windows Application

You can use the printer to scan documents directly into a Windows application that supports a TWAIN interface (such as Photoshop). Some applications allow multiple page scans, while others do not. If you are unsure whether your Windows application supports this feature, refer to the user documentation for the application you are using.

1. Place the image you want to scan face down in the ADF (automatic document feeder) of the printer.

2. In your Windows application, click the command to scan a document. In some applications, the appropriate command may be listed as Acquire or Acquire Image.

3. In the ScanGear window, specify the appropriate preview scan options for your document as necessary, such as Scan Mode, scan Resolution, Preferences, Page Size, and Black and White options (if applicable). Click here to view ScanGear settings.

4. Click 'Preview'.

5. Review the display of the scanned preview image in the scan window. Adjust the properties of your image as necessary.

6. Replace your document in the document feeder of the printer.

7. Click 'Scan'.

When complete, the image appears in the display area of your Windows application.
