Scanning from TWAIN-compliant
software
Some software programs use an industry standard called TWAIN to
allow images to be acquired directly from scanners. This eliminates
some steps from the scanning procedure.
How to tell if your software program supports
TWAIN
To find out if your application uses this method:
● Locate Acquire or Acquire Image under the File menu.
● Check the software’s documentation. If you can’t find any
references to TWAIN, your program doesn’t support it.
How to scan with TWAIN
Note: If your software program does not support TWAIN, the
following procedure will not work.
Make sure your software program has the HP OfficeJet Series
600 selected as the scanning source. Usually, you can check this
by choosing
Select Source or Acquire/Select Source from the
File menu in your software.
If you can’t find where to select the scanning source in your soft-
ware program, check the program’s documentation.
Open a document in your software where you want the image to
be placed.
Load your image or document in the document tray with the
printed side facing away from you (as many pages as your
software will allow, or a single scan/copy sleeve).
Note: If the Document Assistant displays, close it.
Select Acquire Image from the File menu in your software.
(Some programs may have a slightly different command, like
Acquire.)
If the Scan Settings dialog box displays, choose from the many
scanning options, or click
Help for information about the
options. Some applications scan using their own settings. In this
case the Scan Settings dialog box won’t be displayed.
The scanned image will appear in the Image Viewer. You can edit
your image using the Image Viewer tools — see “Scan Image
Viewer” on page 5-5. When you exit from the Image Viewer, the
edited image will appear in your application.
