HOW TO SCAN USING WINDOWS

Scanning a document into the PC
There are two ways in which you can scan a whole page. You can
either use the ADF (automatic document feeder) or the Flatbed
scanner glass.
If you would like to scan and then crop a portion of the page after
pre-scanning the document, you will need to use the scanner glass
(Flatbed). (See PreScanning to crop a portion you want to scan on
page 3-11.)
Scanning a document using the ADF
1
Place the original face up in the ADF (automatic document
feeder).
2
Select the Document Feeder from the Paper source
drop-down list box (A).
3

If you require advanced settings, click Adjust the quality of the
