To scan an image from a scanner using the WIA driver: [This option is only available on Windows XP platforms.] 1. Place the image you want to scan in your scanner. 2.

Set the desired scanning options and then click the Scan button. To scan an image from a camera using the WIA driver: [This option is only available on Windows XP platforms.] 1. In Sharpdesk, choose the From scanner or camera command from the File menu. 2. Select a scanning device if you have more than one WIA device installed. 3. Select the picture that you want to scan. 4. Click the Get Picture button. In a moment, your TWAIN or WIA Scan dialog appears. The Scan dialog is part of the software that comes with your scanner or camera, so it will vary with different manufacturers and scanner models. Follow the instructions that come with your scanner or camera to scan the image into Sharpdesk. Note that you must close the TWAIN Scan dialog before the image will be saved in the desired folder. Setting Scanning Options In most cases (depending on your scanner), you should be able to specify the following scanning options: 1. Preview the document prior to scanning. 2. Select an area of the document from which to scan, typically by dragging the mouse over the area, creating an outline of the selected area on the screen. 3. Tell the scanner to send the image to your computer. Usually, a "scan in process" dialog box appears, showing you the current progress of the scan. When the scanning completes, the dialog box will usually disappear. If the dialog does not disappear on its own, close it manually to save the scanned image in the desired folder. Viewing Scanned Images Once you have scanned an image into Sharpdesk, you can then view it or print it. Click the folder containing the image in the Sharpdesk Folder Window. Your scanned images are displayed as thumbnails in the work area. To view a scanned image, click on the image and click on the Imaging button on the Sharpdesk toolbar. Sharpdesk Imaging starts and displays the selected image. 26 Sharpdesk User's Guide
