2 Squeeze the manual feeder paper width guides and adjust them to 
the width of the paper. Do not force too much, or the paper will be 
bent, which will result in a paper jam or skew.

Section  for PC-printing.
Tips on using the manual feeder
• Load only one size of print media at a time in the manual feeder.
When you print out many pieces of paper at once, tray 1 use is 
recommended.
• To prevent paper jams, do not add paper when there is still paper in  the manual feeder. This also applies to other types of print media.
• Print media should be loaded face up with the top edge going into the  manual feeder first and be placed in the center of the tray.
• Always load only the print media specified in page 5.2 to avoid paper  jams and print quality problems.
• Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading  them into the manual feeder.
Note
• The settings made from the printer driver override the settings on the control panel.
Caution
• If you want to print several pages with the manual feeder, wait the machine complete the printing one page, then 
place a paper on the manual feeder. Otherwise it may 
cause the paper jam.

8 Scanning
Scanning with your machine lets you turn pictures and text into digital 
files that can be stored on your computer. Then you can fax or email the 
files, upload them to your website, or use them to create projects that 
you can print.
This chapter includes:
• Scanning basics
• Scanning to an application using a local connection
• Scanning using a network connection
• Changing the settings for each scan job
• Changing the default scan settings
• Setting up Address Book
Scanning basics
Your machine offers the following ways to scan an image using a local 
connection:
• Via one of the preset imaging applications. Scanning an image 
launches the selected application, enabling you to control the 
scanning process. See the next section.
• Via the  SmarThru™  program supplied with your machine. Scanning 
an image launches  SmarThru™ and enables you to control the 
scanning process.
• Via the Windows Images Acquisition (WIA) driver. See the  Software 
Section .
• To a portable USB memory device, if inserted into the USB memory  port on your machine. See page 11.2.
Also, you can send scanned images to several destinations using a 
network connection:
• To your networked computer via the  Network Scan program. You can 
scan an image from the machine, if network-connected, to the 
computer where the 
Network Scan program is running.
Note
• The maximum resolution that can be achieved depends upon  various factors, including computer speed, available disk 
space, memory, the size of the image being scanned, and bit 
depth settings. Thus, depending on your system and what 
you are scanning, you may not be able to scan at certain 
resolutions, especially using enhanced resolution.
Scanning to an application using a local 
connection
1 Make sure that your machine and computer are turned on and 
properly connected to each other.
2 Load originals face up into the ADF, or place a single original face 
down on the scanner glass.
For details about loading an original, see page 5.1.
3 Press  Scan/Email .
Ready to Scan  appears on the top line of the display.
4 Press the  Scroll buttons until  Scan to Appl.  appears on the bottom 
line of the display and press  OK.
5 Press the  Scroll buttons until the application you want to use 
appears and press  OK.
•  Microsoft Paint : Sends the scanned image to Microsoft Paint.
•  Email : Sends the scanned image to your default email program 
on your computer. A new message windows opens with the image 
attached.
•  My Documents : Saves the scanned image in the default folder, 
My Documents , on your computer.
•  SmarThru : Sends the scanned image to  SmarThru™, installed 
with the printer driver.
•  OCR : Sends the scanned image to the OCR program for text 
recognition.
6 On the selected application, adjust the scan settings and begin 
scanning.
For details, please refer to the application user’s guide.
Note
• You can add more TWAIN-compliant software for 
scanning, such as Adobe Photoshop Deluxe, or Adobe 
Photoshop, from the  Printer Settings Utility . See the 
Software Section .
