Scanning Process with TWAIN-
enabled Software
If you want to scan documents using other software, you will need to use
TWAIN-compliant software, such as Adobe Photoshop. The first time
you scan with your machine, select it as your TWAIN source in the
application you use.
The basic scanning process involves a number of steps:
1
Make sure that your machine and computer are turned on and
properly connected to each other.
2
Load the document(s) face up into the DADF (or ADF).
OR
Place a single document face down on the document glass.
3
Open an application, such as Photoshop.
4
Open the TWAIN window and set the scan options.
5
Scan and save your scanned image.

: You need to follow the program’s instructions for acquiring an
image. Please refer to the user’s guide of the application.
Scanning Using the WIA Driver
Your machine also supports the Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) driver
for scanning images. WIA is one of the standard components provided
by Microsoft
®
Windows
®
XP and works with digital cameras and
scanners. Unlike the TWAIN driver, the WIA driver allows you to scan
and easily manipulate images without using additional software.
