254 Scanning
If you prefer to use another application, such as Adobe
®
Photoshop
®
, you
must assign the application to the printer by selecting it from the list of
available applications through the Select Software button each time you start
scanning. If you do not assign an application to the Select Software button,
PaperPort is automatically selected when you start scanning.
ScanDirect is a PaperPort application that enables you to scan items and send
them directly to PaperPort or other programs on your computer without first
running PaperPort. ScanDirect runs as a separate application from the
Windows start menu and displays the ScanDirect bar. For more information
about using ScanDirect, refer to the PaperPort's Help menu.
Icons on the ScanDirect bar represent the programs that are limited to
PaperPort and to ScanDirect. To scan and send an item to a program, click the
program icon and then scan the item. ScanDirect automatically starts the
selected program when the scan is complete.
