Scanning with the WIA
Interface

Microsoft Windows XP and Windows Vista include their own scanning
interface—known as Windows Image Acquisition (WIA)—for acquiring
images from scanners, digital cameras, and other digital devices.

interface, but you can use PaperPort and other Windows applications as
well.

To scan using WIA from Microsoft Paint:

1.

On the Windows taskbar, click Start, point to Programs, point to
Accessories, and then click Paint.

2.

From the File menu choose From Scanner or Camera.

3.

The Scan using Xerox DocuMate 162 window opens.

4.

Click the button most appropriate for the item you’re scanning.

5.

Select a paper size from the Page Size list.
