Chapter 9 To scan to a computer 1. Load your original print side down on the right front corner of the glass or print side up in the document feeder tray. 2. Press Scan To. A list of destinations, including software applications, appears on the display. 3. Press OK to select the default application to receive the scan, or press to select a different application, and then press OK. A preview image of the scan appears on your computer, where you can edit it. 4. Make any edits to the preview image, and then click Accept when you are finished. The HP All-in-One sends the scan to the selected application. Edit a scanned preview image You can use the tools in the HP Scanning software to modify a preview image. Any changes that you make, such as brightness, image type, resolution, and more apply only to this scan session. You can make additional changes in the HP Photosmart Premier software after the image is scanned. Edit a scanned image You can edit a scanned image using the software you installed with the HP All-in-One. You can also edit a scanned document by using your Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software. This section contains the following topics: • Edit a scanned photo or graphic • Edit a scanned document Edit a scanned photo or graphic You can edit a scanned photo or graphic using the software you installed with the HP Allin-One. Using this software, you can rotate or crop the image, as well as adjust the brightness, contrast, and color saturation. Edit a scanned document Scanning text (also known as optical character recognition or OCR) enables you to bring the content of magazine articles, books, and other printed matter into your favorite word processor and many other programs as fully editable text. Learning to do OCR right is important if you want to obtain the best results. Do not expect scanned text documents to be letter-perfect the first time you use your OCR software. Using OCR software is an art that takes time and practice to master. For more information about scanning documents, especially documents containing both text and graphics, see the documentation that came with your OCR software. 82 Use the scan features
