Scanning Using the Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) Driver
Your printer also supports the WIA driver for scanning images. WIA is one of the standard
components provided by Microsoft Windows XP/Server 2003/Server 2008/Vista/7 and works
with digital cameras and scanners. Unlike the TWAIN driver, the WIA driver enables you to
scan an image and easily manipulate those images without using additional software.
NOTE: The WIA driver works only on Windows XP/Server 2003/Server 2008/Vista/7.
