Scanning digitizes documents and pictures, and sends the digital files to your 
computer, memory card, email, network folder, or USB flash drive.

To scan to a computer, the Home Center Software must be installed on that 
computer, unless you are using the Online Printer Management Tool. (See 

.)

When you scan, the digital file can: 

• open in Home Center Software (when connected to a computer with 

WINDOWS OS)

• open in a third-party scanner software
• be saved in a format and location that you determine (see 

Scanning from a software program on the computer (such as Home Center Software) 
gives you more options, but you can also scan from the printer control panel. 

If you are scanning to a computer, make sure that the printer is connected to a 
computer using a USB 2.0 cable or wireless network (see 

If you want to scan to an email address or to a shared network, you need to: 

• make sure the printer is connected to a computer using a wireless connection

• set up a profile using the Online Printer Management Tool (see 

 and
