SCANNING BASICS
Scanning with your machine lets you turn hard copy originals into digital
files.
There are two ways to scan originals, one is using the USB cable to directly
connect the machine with your computer, and the other is using the network
scan feature which scans and sends the document to a specific destination
via the network.
•
Network Scan:
Sends the document to your networked computer via
the
Network Scan
program. You can scan an image from the machine if
it is connected to the network and send it to the computer where
Network Scan
is running.
•
TWAIN:
TWAIN is the one of preset imaging applications. Scanning an
image launches the selected application, enabling you to control the
scanning process. See
Software section
. This feature can be used via
the local connection or the network connection. See
Software section
.
•
SmarThru Office:
This feature is the accompanying
software for your machine. You can use this program to scan images or
documents, and this feature can be used via the local connection or the
network connection. See
Software section
.
•
WIA:
WIA stands for Windows Images Acquisition. To use this feature
your computer must be connected directly to the machine with a USB
cable. See
Software section

•
Email:
You can send the scanned image as an attachment to an email.

server. (See "Scanning originals and sending via SMB/FTP (Scan to

The maximum resolution that can be achieved depends upon various
factors, including computer speed, available disk space, memory, the
size of the image being scanned, and bit depth settings. Thus,
depending on your system and what you are scanning, you may not
be able to scan at certain resolutions, especially using enhanced
resolution.
