Prescanning An Image - Brother DCP-1000 Owner's Manual

PreScanning an Image

PreScanning allows you to scan an image quickly at a low resolution. A
thumbnail version of the image will appear in the Scanning Area. This is only
a preview of the image so you can see how it will look. The PreScan button is
used to preview an image for cropping any unwanted portions from the image.
When you are satisfied with the preview, click Start to scan the image.
