Microsoft Windows version XP and later includes their own scanning interface—known as Windows Image Acquisition (WIA)—for acquiring images from scanners, digital cameras, and other digital devices.
This section shows how to use Microsoft Paint to scan using the WIA interface, but you can use other Windows applications as well.
To scan using WIA from Microsoft Paint:
1. On the Windows taskbar, click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, and then click Paint.
2. From the File menu choose From Scanner or Camera.
3. The WIA scanning window opens. Use this window to select scanning options and start the scanner.
4. Click the button most appropriate for the item you’re scanning.
5. Select a paper size from the Page Size list.
6. Adjust the image settings as desired:
■ Change the button selection for the type of image.
■ Adjust the custom settings; refer to the next section, “Fine Tuning Your Scans”.
■ Change the size of the scanned image.
7. The scanned images will appear in Microsoft Paint (or other WIA application you’re using).
