How do I scan documents?
Things to note before scanning:
- Scanning is free
- You must have a USB drive (flash drive) in order to save your scans. USB drives are available at the front desk for checkout.
To use the scanner:
- Tap your Bear Card at the printer.
- Press the "home" button.
- Put your USB drive in the left side of the printer.
- Choose the "Scanner" icon on the display
- If you are scanning loose-leaf pages, you can put the pages face up in the document feeder on the top of the machine.
- When the documents are done scanning, the images will be saved as a PDF on the USB drive.
- If you are scanning pages in a book, you will want to open up the flatbed scanner.
- Make sure to align your scan with the top-left corner of the flatbed scanner, face down.
- You will have 60 seconds after a scan to set up the next image.
- When you are through scanning, press the # key to save the images as a PDF to your USB drive.
