Completing the final scan
When you finish making changes, you need to complete the final scan
by doing one of these tasks:
"Sending to a program" on page 61.
"Returning the image to a TWAIN program" on page 62.
"Saving to a file" on page 62.
"Printing" on page 64.
"Placing a scan on a website" on page 64.
"Setting the scanned image as wallpaper" on page 65.
"Copying and pasting into another program" on page 65.
"Dragging-and-dropping into another program" on page 65.
"Dragging-and-dropping to the Windows Desktop or a folder" on
page 66.
"Scanning to CD" on page 66.
When you do any of these procedures, the scanner performs a final
scan including your changes before sending it to the program or printer
you choose, copying the image, or completing any other function.
Images are not automatically saved as files if you print them, send
them to a another program, or copy and paste them into a file in
another program. To use the scanned image again, be sure to save it.
See "Saving to a file" on page 62.
Sending to a program
Once you finish viewing and changing the scanned image, you can
perform a final scan and send it directly to a program such as e-mail. If
the program you want is not available, save the image as a file and
insert it into the destination program as you normally would.
To send to a program
1 Do one of the following:
On the Scan menu, click Scan To.
On the toolbar or the Guided Steps (if visible), click .
2 Choose a program from the list and click Scan.
3 If the program you select accepts multipage files, you might be
asked if you have more pages to scan to this file. Do one of the
following:
If this is a one-page item, click Done.
If there are more pages of this item, load the next page in the
scanner and click Scan on the computer. Repeat until all pages
are scanned. Then, click Done.
The destination program opens and displays the scanned image.
Tip If you send text to Word or another word-processing
program and the text appears inside a frame you do
not want, double-click the frame border and click
Remove Frame or a similar command in the word-
processing program. To prevent this from
happening in the future, see "Setting preferences"
on page 68.
