Scanning Pictures in the Learning Commons
- Log into a computer with a scanner attached.
- Double click the “HP Solution Center” icon.
- Open the scanner and place your picture on the glass plate face-down.
- Once the program opens, click on “Scan Picture” in the column of buttons on the left.
- The computer normally saves your file to the Scans folder on the desktop. If you wish to save it on the U: drive or a flash drive, click on the “Save to File Save Options…” Select the drive and folder where you wish to save it from the list, and click “OK”.
- Click “Scan.”
- Wait for the scanner to warm up.
- A rectangle with dotted lines will appear on the page. Use the mouse to move it until it covers only the area you wish to scan.
- Click on “Accept.”
- After the scan is complete, you will be asked whether you want to scan more pictures. Select “Yes” or “No.”
- Close HP Solution Center.
- Open My Computers, and check to make sure that your file is in the place you sent it. Files are saved under a name starting with “scan”, such as scan0001.jpg.
You’re done!
