Scanning
Scanning digitizes documents and pictures, and sends the digital files to your
computer.
When you scan, the digital file can:
• Open in Home Center Software (when Home Center Software is loaded and the
printer is connected to a computer with WINDOWS OS)
• Open in a third-party scanner software
• Be saved in a format and location that you determine (see
settings for scanning from the printer control panel, page 49
)
There are two ways to scan: From the control panel on the printer, or from a software
program on the computer. Scanning from a software program on the computer (such
as Home Center Software) is recommended because it gives you more options.
Before you begin scanning
Make sure that the printer is connected to a computer using a USB cable or wireless
network (see
Chapter 2 , Networking Your Printer
). If you plan to scan directly from
the printer control panel, you may change the scan settings as described below.
