You can use a standalone scanner to scan images onto the computer.
Whether you have a standalone scanner or one that's included with your printer, you can use it to scan images onto your computer. A scanner should be installed and connected to the computer for the scan to work. Although the scanning process differs from scanner to scanner, you can refer to your owner's manual your particular scanner. The scanned image may be added to a document, modified in an image editor or placed on the Web.
Instructions
1. Turn on the scanner.
2. Start the application that came with the scanner (such as Readiris) or an image editing program (such as Adobe Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro).
3. Place the image you want to scan on the scanner's glass or tray.
4. Go to the toolbar and select "File" and "Acquire," "File" and "Scanner," "File," "Import," "Twain" and "Acquire" or press the "Scan" button, depending on your application. The scan starts automatically and loads on your screen.
5. Select "File" and "Save" from the toolbar to save the scanned image. Name the file and accept the default file extension. Then click "Save."
