Scanning with the WIA
Interface
Microsoft Windows XP includes its own scanning interface—known
as Windows Image Acquisition (WIA)—for acquiring images from
scanners, digital cameras, and other digital devices.
This section shows how to use Microsoft Paint to scan using the
WIA interface, but you can use PaperPort and other Windows
applications as well.
NOTE:
Scanning with the Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) is
only available if your computer is running Windows XP.
To scan using WIA from Microsoft Paint:
1. On the Windows taskbar, click Start, point to Programs, point
to Accessories, and then click Paint.
The Paint window opens.
2. From the File menu choose From Scanner or Camera.
