Scanning FAQ
How can I improve the quality of a scan?
•
Make sure your original documents are in good condition.
•
Make sure the application that receives the scanned document is appropriate. For example, if you are scanning
a photo to edit it, then make sure you choose a photo editing application to receive the scan. If you are scanning
a document to edit the text, then make sure you choose an OCR application.
•
Use a high resolution.
How do I scan in black and white?
Color is the default for all scans. To scan in black and white, do the following:
1
From the home screen of the printer control panel, touch Scan.
2
Choose a scan destination.
3
Select the settings for the scan.
4
From the Scan Options screen, touch
.
Why am I being asked for a PIN?
PINs are a security measure used to restrict the scanned information from going into certain locations, or to keep
what is being scanned from being seen or used by others. You may be prompted to enter a PIN if the network
computer you are scanning to requires one.
To learn how PINs get assigned to network computers, see the Help for the printer software associated with your
operating system.
What is an application list, and how do I update it?
When you scan a file, you can choose which application to use to open it on your computer. The printer downloads
this application list from your computer when scanning for the first time. If you do not see the application you want
on the list, or if you install new applications on your computer, then update the application list in the printer.
Updating the application list
1
From the home screen of the printer control panel, navigate to Scan to Computer:
Scan > Scan to Computer
2
Select a local or network computer to receive the scan.
3
From the list of scan applications available on the selected computer, touch REFRESH, and then touch Accept.
This updates the application list in the printer.
Canceling scan jobs
Press
on the printer control panel, or click Cancel on the computer screen.
