CANNING FROM THE
Scanning from the button panel on the screen is just like pressing a scanner button, except you click the
button on the screen. The scanner scans the item, and then sends the image either to the printer, or to a
destination application on your computer. This method of scanning is especially helpful if the scanner is
not located close to your computer.
To scan from the screen:
1. Place an item to scan on the glass, face down, close the lid, and then click the scanner icon on the
Windows taskbar.
The scanner button panel appears on the screen.
2. Click the button you want to use to scan.
The scanner starts scanning the item; the messages about the scanning appear above the Windows
taskbar; the progress window shows the image as it is scanned. When the scan is complete, the
scanned image appears in the destination application.
The icons on the buttons indicate the destination application for the scanned image. For example, in the
illustration above, the icon on the email button is for the email application, MS Outlook. When you
click the email button, the item is scanned, and then MS Outlook opens. In this case, the scanned image
automatically becomes an attachment to send with an email message.
A question mark icon on a button means your computer does not have an application that corresponds
to that button's functions. For example, if your computer does not have an email application, the Email
button will have a question mark icon on it.

BOUT THE ONFIGURATION
The Configuration dialog box shows the current settings for each scanner button.
The tabs across the top of the dialog box correspond to the buttons. Clicking a tab shows the current
settings for the corresponding button on the scanner.
For example, the following figure shows the current settings for the Custom button because the Custom
tab is selected. The Custom button is set up to scan the item with the configuration named Photograph
for Editing, and then after the scanning is finished, to open Microsoft Paint to display the scanned image.
The Format and Page(s) setting is to scan as a bitmap for a single page item.
