BASIC SCANNING PROCEDURE

You can install the scanner driver on your computer from the CD-ROM that accompanies the machine, and use a
TWAIN* compliant application to scan an image using your computer.
Scanning from your computer is most useful for scanning a single original such as a photo, particularly when you want to
adjust scan settings as you scan. By contrast, scanning at the machine is most useful for continuous scanning of
multiple originals.
* An interface standard used for scanners and other image input devices. When the scanner driver is installed on your

computer, you can use any TWAIN-compliant application to scan an image.

As an example, the procedure for scanning from the "Sharpdesk" application that accompanies the machine is
explained below.

SCANNING FROM A COMPUTER
(PC Scan Mode)

• Scanning in PC scan mode is only possible when the scanner driver has been installed from the "Software CD-ROM"

using the integrated installer. For the procedures for installing the scanner driver and configuring settings, see the
Software Setup Guide.

• This function cannot be used when it has been disabled using "Disable Scan Function" in the system settings (administrator).

• The procedures for selecting the scanner driver and starting scanning vary depending on the TWAIN-compliant

application. For more information, see the manual for the application or Help.

• When a large image is scanned at high resolution, the amount of data will be very large and scanning will take a long time.

Be sure to select appropriate scan settings for the original (text, photo, etc.).
