Scanning
Scanning Overview
You can use your Dell™ 1355cn/1355cnw Multifunction Color Printer to turn 
pictures and text into editable images on your computer. 
Pa p e r Po r t
® is a program that enables you to organize, find and share all your 
paper and digital documents, and is supplied with your printer.
The resolution setting to use when you scan an item depends on the item 
type and how you plan to use the image or document after you scan it in to 
your computer. For the best results, use these recommended settings. 
Scanning beyond these recommended resolutions may exceed the capabilities 
of the application. If you require a resolution above those recommended in 
the above table, you should reduce the size of the image by previewing (or 
pre-scan) and cropping before scanning the image.
 NOTE: You can use PaperPorts built-in Optical Character Recognition (OCR) 
software to copy text from scanned documents so that you can use and edit the text 
in any text editing, word processing, or spreadsheet program. The OCR process 
requires textual images scanned at 150–600 dpi and 300 dpi or 600 dpi is 
recommended for graphics. Type Resolution
Documents 300 dpi black-and-white or 200 dpi 
grayscale or color
Documents of poor quality or that 
contain small text400 dpi black-and-white or 300 dpi 
grayscale
Photographs and pictures 100–200 dpi color or 200 dpi grayscale
Images for an inkjet printer 150–300 dpi
Images for a high-resolution printer  300–600 dpi
 
						

							254Scanning
If you prefer to use another application, such as Adobe® Photoshop®, you 
must assign the application to the printer by selecting it from the list of 
available applications through the Select Software button each time you start 
scanning. If you do not assign an application to the Select Software button, 
PaperPort is automatically selected when you start scanning.
ScanDirect is a PaperPort application that enables you to scan items and send 
them directly to PaperPort or other programs on your computer without first 
running PaperPort. ScanDirect runs as a separate application from the 
Windows start menu and displays the ScanDirect bar. For more information 
about using ScanDirect, refer to the PaperPorts Help menu.
Icons on the ScanDirect bar represent the programs that are limited to 
PaperPort and to ScanDirect. To scan and send an item to a program, click the 
program icon and then scan the item. ScanDirect automatically starts the 
selected program when the scan is complete.
