Scanning converts the text and images from the documents and pictures that you
place on the scanner glass into electronic data, and then sends the data to your
computer. To scan with your all-in-one printer, it must be connected to a computer
with a USB cable or a wireless network.
You save the scanned file(s) to your computer; you cannot save to a memory card in
the printer.
Change the default scan settings in the Home Center Software. (Click the Tool icon,
then select Printer Scan Settings .)You can adjust the following settings for scanned
pictures and documents:
• Color / black-and-white / gray scale
• Resolution (dpi)
• File format (.pdf, .rtf, .tif, .jpg for documents; .jpg, .bmp, .tif for pictures)
• Base name (by default, scanned files are named "scan1", "scan2", etc)
• Location (folder) where the scanned files will be saved
Before saving a scanned file, you can preview it in Home Center Software, and crop
the output as desired. See the Home Center Software Help ( ? icon) for instructions.
To scan a single document or picture:
1. Lift the scanner lid, and place the document or picture face down on the glass.
2. Close the lid.
3. Open Home Center Software, then:
• On a WINDOWS OS-based computer, select Scan Pictures and Documents ,
then follow the on-screen instructions.
• On a MACINTOSH Computer, select Tools > Scan Application , then follow
the on-screen instructions.
