4 Using Scans
The Flip-Pal
®
mobile scanner stores scans on the SD memory card the same way your digital
camera does. When you are ready to use your scans, simply transfer them to your computer
and use them just like any digital photo or image – crop, rotate, adjust color, print, etc.
To remove the SD card from the scanner, push it in gently. It will then spring out slightly,
allowing you to slide it out. It is recommended that you power off the scanner
before removing the SD card. If you remove the SD card while the scanner is on, you will
get a warning message “Insert Card/Power On”, then the scanner will turn off after 5-10
seconds.
When you are done using your scans on your computer, you can return the SD card to the
scanner.
NOTE: Please refer to your computer’s documentation for the recommended way to safely
eject and remove the SD card from your computer’s SD slot. Failure to do so could result in
the loss of your scans.
