Basic Operating Procedure of WSD Scanner (Pull Type)

1On the client computer, click the [Start] menu, point to [All Programs], and then click [Windows Fax and Scan].

2Place an original on this machine.

3In the [Windows Fax and Scan] window, click the [File] menu, point to [New], and then click [Scan...].

4Click [Change...] in [Scanner] and select the device you want to use, and then click [OK].

5In the [New Scan] dialog box, make settings for the type of original and type of scanning, etc.

For details about items you can set, see Scan Profile Items and Settings.

To use a saved profile, select the profile in [Profile].

6Click [Scan].

The original is scanned.

When originals are scanned using the ADF, the machine scans one page each time as it is instructed to scan. If you want to scan multiple originals, click [Scan] in the dialog box each time you scan a page of the original.

Note

  • If scanning takes too long, the computer might time out and display the error message "Automatic Scanning could not be completed" on the computer screen. If this happens, change the scan settings or scan the originals one side at a time.

  • In the profile settings, if you select [Feeder (Scan one side)] for [Source:], only one side will be scanned per operation. If you select [Feeder (Scan both sides)] for [Source:], two sides will be scanned per operation.

  • You cannot scan originals while other originals are being scanned.

  • Two-sided originals are scanned for sideways opening (top-to-top orientation).

  • Transmission results of WSD scanning (Pull Type) jobs do not appear in File Status.

  • The Blank Page Detect function is not available when you are using the WSD scanner (Pull Type).

  • If a scanning method other than [Auto Detect] is set, the original may not be able to be scanned at the set size. In such cases, delete the scan profile, and then scan the original again. For details about deleting a scan profile, see Changing a Scan Profile.

  • To scan an original correctly, place it as shown in the following table:
