Scanning Process with TWAIN-
enabled Software

If you want to scan documents using other software, you will

need to use TWAIN-compliant software, such as Adobe
Photoshop. The first time you scan with your machine, select it
as your TWAIN source in the application you use.
The basic scanning process involves a number of steps:

1

Make sure that your machine and computer are turned on
and properly connected to each other.

2

Place a single document face down on the document glass.
OR load the document(s) face up into the ADF (or DADF).

3

Open an application, such as Photoshop.

4

Open the TWAIN window and set the scan options.

5

Scan and save your scanned image.

: You need to follow the program’s instructions for

acquiring an image. Please refer to the user’s guide of the

application.

Scanning Using the WIA Driver

Your machine also supports the Windows Image Acquisition
(WIA) driver for scanning images. WIA is one of the standard
components provided by Microsoft

Windows

XP and works

with digital cameras and scanners. Unlike the TWAIN driver, the
WIA driver allows you to scan and easily manipulate images
without using additional software.
