    TIPS
    Scan from the machine more easily
    If  you have regularly used preferences,  such as scanning in color or black and  white,  or a pre-determined computer  where
    scanned documents will  be saved, specifying  these settings each time  you scan can be troublesome. Register these settings in a
    [Scan > PC] key  so that  you can scan with one press of a key. There  are  two [Scan > PC] keys: 
    and  . You  can
    register  your settings in either of these keys. Scanning Using  the [Scan >  PC] Key

    Scanning from a Computer
    There  are  two ways to  scan from a computer: using MF Toolbox  and  using an  application such as an  image-processing or word -
    processing application.
    Scanning  Using  MF Toolbox
    MF Toolbox  is  an  application included  with the  machine that  enables you to  scan documents or images to
    a computer. You  can forward  the  scanned data to  a specified application,  or attach it to  an  e-mail
    message.
    Scanning  Using  an Application
    You  can scan images by using an  application such as a word -processing or image-processing application,
    and  load the  images directly  into the  application.  You  do not  need to  start another application to  scan.
