Scanning
Scanning Overview
You can use your printer to turn pictures and text into editable images on your computer.
The resolution setting to use when you scan an item depends on the item type and how you plan to use the image or
document after you scan it into your computer. For the best results, use these recommended settings.
Scanning beyond these recommended resolutions may exceed the capabilities of the application. If you require a
recommended resolution mentioned in the above table, reduce the size of the image by previewing (or pre-scan)
and crop it before scanning the image.
