Basic Scanning

The Scanning feature provides several methods for scanning and storing an original document. The
scanning procedure using your printer differs from that of desktop scanners. The printer is connected
typically to a network rather than a single computer, so you select a destination for the scanned image at
the printer.
The printer supports the following scanning functions:
Scan documents and store images on the printer hard drive.
•
• Scan original documents to a document repository on a network server.
• Scan original documents to an email address.
Scan original documents to your home directory.
•
• Scan original documents to a USB Flash drive.
• Import scanned images into applications using TWAIN and WIA.
To scan an image:
1. On the control panel, press the yellow Clear All button to clear previous settings.
2. Load your original documents:
Use the document glass for single pages or paper that cannot be fed using the document feeder.
−
Place the first page of the document face down, in the top left corner of the document glass.
− Use the document feeder for multiple or single pages. Remove any staples and paper clips from
the pages and place them face up in the document feeder.
Press the Services Home button, then touch Workflow Scanning.
3.
4. Touch Change, then for Pick a Workflow, select an option.
5. To change any of the scan settings, on the Workflow Scanning screen, select options.
6. Press the green Start button.
Notes:
