Overview Button:
Click this button once the scanner
settings have been entered to pre-
view the x-ray.

Image Correction:
If the image requires adjustment,
click on the Correction menu and
select the “Brightness and Contrast”
option to lighten or darken the x-ray,
The “Brightness and Contrast”
menu is shown below. The images
preview the effect of the changes.
To apply the changes, click on “OK”.

Saving the File:
Once the desired corrections have
been made to the image, you can
save the file. Click once on the
“Scan To” icon at the top of the pre-
view window.
By default, the image will be
scanned to a file, and the window
shown to the right will appear.
Hold down the Scan To button
brings up an option menu to allow
you to send the scanned image to
a different location, such as the
printer, for example.
Click on “Save” to save the image.

This window displays
where the scanned files
will be saved to. By
default, it saves it to the
My Images folder,
which has a shortcut on
the desktop.
We recommend naming
the files with the name
of the patient, followed
by the type of x-ray.
This allows for easier
identification.
The file format should
be set to TIFF for high-
er image quality.
