Scanning Overview

The Scan To options enable users to create a digital version of a hard copy document which can be
sent to a computer over the network or through a USB cable connection. The original documents can
be scanned in color, grayscale, or black and white, and the digital file can then be sent to a specified
destination.
Before you begin the scan process, ensure that your device has been set up for the scan function at
install. For instructions on setting up and configuring the Scan function, refer to
Settings.
