While you are in a TWAIN-compliant or WIA-compliant program, you can gain access to the scanning
feature and scan an image directly into the open program. For more information, see the Help file or the
documentation that came with your TWAIN-compliant or WIA-compliant software program.

Scan from a TWAIN-compliant program

Generally, a software program is TWAIN-compliant if it has a command such as Acquire, File
Acquire
, Scan, Import New Object, Insert from, or Scanner. If you are unsure whether the program
is compliant or you do not know what the command is called, see the software program Help or
documentation.

When scanning from a TWAIN-compliant program, the HP LaserJet Scan software program might start
automatically. If the HP LaserJet Scan program starts, you can make changes while previewing the
image. If the program does not start automatically, the image goes to the TWAIN-compliant program
immediately.

Start the scan from within the TWAIN-compliant program. See the software program Help or
documentation for information about the commands and steps to use.

Scan from a WIA-compliant program (Windows XP and Vista only)

WIA is another way to scan an image directly into a software program, such as Microsoft Word. WIA
uses Microsoft software to scan, instead of HP LaserJet Scan software.

Generally, a software program is WIA-compliant if it has a command such as Picture/From Scanner
or Camera
in the Insert or File menu. If you are unsure whether the program is WIA-compliant, see the
software program Help or documentation.

Start the scan from within the WIA-compliant program. See the software program Help or documentation
for information about the commands and steps to use.

program for editing.
