Scanning FAQ
How can I improve the quality of a scan?
• Make sure your original documents are in good condition.
• Make sure the application that receives the scanned document is appropriate. For example, if you are scanning
a photo to edit it, then make sure you choose a photo editing application to receive the scan. If you are scanning
a document to edit the text, then make sure you choose an OCR application.
• Use a high resolution.
How do I scan in black and white?
Color is the default for all scans. To scan in black and white, press the Color/Black button on the printer control panel
to switch from color to black and white.
