Scanning Using an Application

 
Scan the document by using an application. You can use Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft Office Word, or other image-processing and word-processing applications. The scanned image is directly loaded in the application, allowing you to edit or process the image immediately. The following procedure varies depending on the application.
The application must be compatible with TWAIN or WIA*. For more information, see the instruction manual for your application.
* TWAIN is a standard for connecting image input devices, such as scanners, with computers. WIA is a function that is an integrated standard in Windows.
