SCANNING FROM A WIA-COMPLIANT
APPLICATION (WINDOWS XP/Vista)
If you are using Windows XP/Vista, you can use the WIA driver to scan from Paint and other WIA-compliant
applications. The procedure for scanning using Paint is explained in the following.
1
Place the original(s) that you wish to
scan on the document glass or in the
SPF.
For information on placing an original for
scanning, see "4. COPY FUNCTIONS" in the
"Operation manual (for general information and
copier)".
2
Start Paint and then select [From
Scanner or Camera] from the [File]
menu.
The scan screen of the WIA driver will appear.
3
Select the paper source and picture
type, and click the [Preview] button.
• The preview image will appear.
• If you placed the original on the document
glass, select [Flatbed] for the "Paper source".
• If you placed the original in the SPF, select
[Document Feeder] for the "Paper source" and
specify the original size in "Page size".
4
Click the [Scan] button.
• Scanning begins and the image is acquired into
Paint.
• Use [Save] in your application to select a file
name and folder for the scanned image, and
save the image.
• To cancel scanning after the [Scan] button has
been clicked, click the [Cancel] button or press
the [C] key (
) or [CA] key (
) on the
machine operation panel.
If you have WIA drivers for other devices
installed on your computer, the "Select
Device" screen will open. Select [SHARP
MX-xxxx] and click the [OK] button.
Note
• If an SPF is not installed on your machine,
the "Paper source" menu will not appear.
• If you select [Document Feeder] for the
"Paper source" and click the [Preview]
button, the top original in the SPF is
previewed. The previewed original is sent
to the original exit area, so you will need
to return it to the SPF before starting the
scanning job.
