Using special scan features

You can use your printer software to scan in many ways. You can:

• Repeat images
• Autofit
• Multi-up—A printer software option that lets you print multiple pages of a document

on a single sheet of paper. For example, select 4-up to print reduced images of page 1

through 4 on the first sheet of paper, images of pages 5 through 8 on the second sheet

and so on.

• Use Optical Character Recognition to edit text on a document. For help, see Using

Optical Character Recognition.
