Scanning by using other software

The device is TWAIN-compliant and Windows Imaging Application (WIA)-compliant. The device works
with Windows-based programs that support TWAIN-compliant or WIA-compliant scanning devices and
with Macintosh-based programs that support TWAIN-compliant scanning devices.

Using TWAIN-compliant and WIA-compliant software

From a TWAIN-enabled or WIA-enabled program, you can open 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.

Scanning from a TWAIN-enabled program

Generally, a software program is TWAIN-enabled 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-enabled program, the HP LaserJet Scan software program might start
automatically. If the HP LaserJet Scan program starts, you can make changes while you are previewing
the image. If the program does not start automatically, the image goes to the TWAIN-enabled program
immediately.

To scan from a TWAIN-enabled program

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

Scanning from a WIA-enabled program (Windows XP or Windows Server 2003)

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 the HP LaserJet Scan software.

Generally, a software program is WIA-enabled 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-enabled, see the
software program Help or documentation.

To scan from a WIA-enabled program

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

-Or-

In the Cameras and Scanner folder, double-click the device icon. This opens the standard Microsoft
WIA Wizard, which enables you to scan to a file.
