Quick Tips for Scanning

Quick Tips

  • The scanner cable must always be connected to your computer to scan.
  • Insert one photo at a time into the scanner tray – face down with the top edge first.
  • Auto scan is turned on by default so your photo will scan automatically when placed in the tray.
  • Look for your scanned image in the PictureStudio Inbox. You can change the scan destination to save directly into an album instead of your inbox.
