Scanning by using other software
The device is TWAIN-compliant and Windows Imaging Application (WIA)-compliant. The device
works with Windows-based programs that support TWAIN-compliant or WIA-compliant scanning
devices and with Macintosh-based programs that support TWAIN-compliant scanning devices.
Using TWAIN-compliant and WIA-compliant software
From a TWAIN-enabled or WIA-enabled program, you can open the scanning feature and scan an
image directly into the open program. For more information, see the Help file or the documentation
that came with your TWAIN-compliant or WIA-compliant software program.
Scanning from a TWAIN-enabled program
Generally, a software program is TWAIN-enabled if it has a command such as Acquire, File
Acquire, Scan, Import New Object, Insert from, or Scanner. If you are unsure whether the
program is compliant or you do not know what the command is called, see the software program
Help or documentation.
When scanning from a TWAIN-enabled program, the HP LaserJet Scan software program might start
automatically. If the HP LaserJet Scan program starts, you can make changes while you are
previewing the image. If the program does not start automatically, the image goes to the TWAIN-
enabled program immediately.
To scan from a TWAIN-enabled program
Start the scan from within the TWAIN-enabled program. See the software program Help or
documentation for information about the commands and steps to use.
Scanning from a WIA-enabled program (Windows XP or Windows Server 2003)
WIA is another way to scan an image directly into a software program, such as Microsoft Word. WIA
uses Microsoft software to scan, instead of the HP LaserJet Scan software.
Generally, a software program is WIA-enabled if it has a command such as Picture/From Scanner
or Camera in the Insert or File menu. If you are unsure whether the program is WIA-enabled, see
the software program Help or documentation.
To scan from a WIA-enabled program
Start the scan from within the WIA-enabled program. See the software program Help or
documentation for information about the commands and steps to use.
