Scanning
This chapter briefly explains how to scan documents into your computer using the scanner driver included in the
CD-ROM.
Before Scanning
Before scanning, software must be installed on your computer.
•
If not, please refer to the Starter Guide or Chapter 1, "Installation," in the Software Guide.
Check if the scanner driver is installed on your computer by following this procedure.
1
Open the [Scanners and Cameras] folder (Windows 98/2000: the [Scanners and Cameras Properties]
dialog box).
● On Windows XP:
❑
Click [start] on the Windows task bar ➞ select [Control Panel] ➞ [Printers and Other Hardware] ➞ [Scanners
and Cameras].
● On Windows 98/Me/2000:
❑
Click [Start] on the Windows task bar ➞ select [Settings] ➞ [Control Panel] ➞ double click [Scanners and
Cameras].
2
Make sure there is the corresponding scanner driver name or icon.
Scanning Methods
There are two methods of scanning documents to your computer:
•
Using a TWAIN- or WIA- (Windows XP) compliant Windows application
•
Using [SCAN] on the operation panel of the machine
IMPORTANT
For better scanning quality for color documents, we recommend that you place documents on the platen glass. If
you use the ADF, the scanned image might not be clear.
This section explains how to scan using [SCAN] on the operation panel of the machine. By pressing
[SCAN] ➞ [B&W Start] or [Color Start] on the operation panel of the machine, you can scan documents
to your computer.
1
Place the document on the platen glass or load it in the ADF.
For details on how to place documents, see "Setting Up Documents," on p. 3-2.
2
Press [SCAN] ➞ [B&W Start] or [Color Start] on the machine.
If you are asked to select the program to launch, select "MF Toolbox Ver4.9."
Scanning starts.
The MF Toolbox and the MF Toolbox settings dialog box will open, but the document will be scanned without
pressing [Start].
The scanned document will be processed according to your settings.
When you use [Start] for the first time, a folder with the scanning date will be created in the [My Pictures] folder in the
[My Documents] folder, and your document will be saved in this folder. If there is no [My Pictures] folder, the folder
with the scanning date will be created in the [My Documents] folder and your document will be saved in this folder.
