You can scan monochrome and colour
documents into a memory card or USB Flash
memory drive. Monochrome documents will
be stored in PDF (*.PDF) or TIFF (*.TIF) file
formats. Colour documents may be stored in
PDF (*.PDF) or JPEG (*.JPG) file formats.
The factory setting is Color 150 and the
default file format is PDF. The machine
automatically creates file names based on
the current date. (For details, see the Quick
Setup Guide.) For example, the fifth image
scanned on July 1, 2010 would be named
01071005.PDF. You can change the colour
and quality.
