Open the top cover and place the document or photo you want to scan face down on the scanner
glass and aligned with the upper left corner. For more information see "Placing Your Document on the
Scanner Glass".

Press the Scan button on your printer’s front panel. A pop-up is displayed with the following Toolbox
tools: Scan to file, Scan to application, Scan to e-mail and Scan to fax. Select where you want to send
the scanned image by clicking on the corresponding tool icon. See "Printing, Copying and Scanning
From the Toolbox".
The scanner driver user interface screen is displayed with a low resolution preview of the document or
image on the left-hand side of the screen. You can:

Use selection handles to delimit the area of the preview image that you want to scan.

Rotate, flip, enlarge or reduce the preview image.

Scan a new preview in case you accidentally removed the original from the scanner glass.

Launch your final scan according to the settings that you have made.
On the right-hand side of the scanner driver interface screen, customise your scan settings as indicated
in the following table:
