8 Scanning

Before you begin scanning
Scanning from the control panel
Scanning from the computer
Scanning from the Online Printer Management Tool

Scanning digitizes documents and pictures, and sends the digital files to your computer, memory card, email, network folder, or USB flash drive.

To scan to a computer, the Home Center Software must be installed on that computer, unless you are using the Online Printer Management Tool. (See Accessing the Online Printer Management Tool.)

When you scan, the digital file can:

• open in Home Center Software (when 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 Changing the scan settings for scanning from the control panel)

Scanning from a software program on the computer (such as Home Center Software) gives you more options, but you can also scan from the printer control panel.
