The sequence of "scanning a document and saving it to a computer" can be done entirely from the machine. Scan while specifying what computer documents will be saved to; whether to scan documents in color or black and white; whether to save documents as PDFs or JPEGs; and other settings. |

You cannot scan while the ScanGear MF is displayed. Close the screen before scanning. |
About the save destination folderBy default, the scanned data is saved to the [My Documents] folder. A subfolder named with the scanning date is created, and the data is saved to that folder. You can change the save destination from MF Scan Utility. For more information, click [Instructions] on MF Scan Utility. |
Scan from the machine more easilyIf you have regularly used preferences, such as scanning in color or black and white, or a pre-determined computer where scanned documents will be saved, specifying these settings each time you scan can be troublesome. Register these settings in a [Scan -> PC] key so that you can scan with one press of a key. Scanning Using the [Scan -> PC] Key |
