Adjusting scan settings

You can change the default scan settings for your printer using the control panel. When you change scan settings from the control panel, the settings apply only to the current scan job. To apply scan settings to all future scan jobs, you can save your changes.

  1. From the control panel, press Menu.

  2. Press until Scan is selected.

  3. Press OK to display the Scan Options menu. A sample of the menu is shown in the illustration below.



  4. Here you can press until the option you want to adjust is selected. If a value is displayed between the and symbols in the row, press or to select the value you want.

  5. Any changes you make to the scan settings apply only to the current scan operation. To keep the settings as permanent, press until Save as Defaults is selected, and then press OK.

  6. Press Start to initiate the scan.

The available scan settings are in the following table:

a If you select Document and save the scan to a File, the scan is saved as a document (.pdf or rtf) file, even if the original is a photo. If you select Photo, a text document will be scanned as an image file, and cannot be read by optical character recognition (OCR) software.

b If your printer is connected to a network, more than one computer name will appear in this list. If your printer is connected to a printer by the USB cable, the computer name in the menu is called USB Connected Computer.

c You must create a list of one or more applications using Home Center software for any to display by name in the Scan Destination settings. Each application will appear as a separate setting in the display. (Kodak Home Center software is displayed by default; you do not need to configure your destinations to include it.) In addition, before using a Scan Destination setting of File, familiarize yourself with the location where the files will be saved and with the file naming setting. This will prevent problems later in finding the scan file on your computer.
