How to Scan an Image

The Health Sciences Library public scanner can scan from the flatbed (maximum page size is 8.5" X 11") or by using the single pass Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) (maximum page size is 11" X 14"). To scan both sides of a sheet when using the ADF you have to pass the sheet through twice. You can use either the EPSON SCAN software (recommended) or the PaperPort software to access the public scanner.

Place your image or document on the scanner flatbed (single sheet or image) or in the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) for multiple sheets
Click on the EPSON SCAN software icon located on the desktop
Select the software mode: Home, Office, or Professional. Office is the default and recommended for general use.
Set the location of the file to be saved and the format (JPEG, TIFF, PDF ...) in the File Save Settings screen
Click the Scan button on the bottom of the menu to scan the image/document
If you are scanning more than one page you can choose to add images to one document or save just one image/page per file

To Print:

After saving the file the EPSON SCAN software will automatically open the folder where the file was saved
