X About Scanning Images

You can scan images from the machine to a computer, and save them in JPEG, TIFF, or Bitmap 
format. And you can process that data by using the supplied application software to create original 
images. Furthermore, you can use the supplied OCR (Optical Character Recognition) software to 
convert scanned paper documents to text data.

X Before Scanning

Before scanning images, confirm as follows:

z Is the software (MP Drivers and MP Toolbox) installed?

If the software is not yet installed, see Software Guide, located on your Setup CD-ROM.

z Does the document to be scanned meet the requirements for setting on the platen glass?

For details, see page 19.

After turning ON the machine, or after recovering from Power Save mode (see page 120), the image 
may not be correctly read by the machine. Wait at least one minute before scanning.

X Scanning Methods

There are three methods of scanning images to your computer:

z Using the MP Toolbox (See page 79)
z Using a TWAIN- or WIA- (Windows XP only) compliant Windows application software 

z Scanning with the operation panel of the machine (See page 81)

This section explains how to scan using these methods.
