How do I scan using my product's control panel?

  • You can scan an image to your computer using your product's control panel buttons.

    Your product automatically selects default scan settings, but you can view or change them as necessary. You can change the default scan settings using the Event Manager utility on the computer.

    1. Make sure you installed the product software and connected the product to your computer or network.

      Note: Restart your computer after installing the product software to enable scanning from the control panel.

    2. Place your original on the product for scanning.
