How to Scan on a PC

1. Unlock your scanner. Look at the back of the scanner. Move the tab to the left side of the switch. (Anytime you move your scanner, you must lock it.) Be sure you unlock it again before you scan.
2. Double-click on the Scanner icon on your desktop.
3. Double-click on the PhotoStudio icon.

11. Once the scanning is complete, close out of the scan window by clicking on the “X” in the top right corner of the window. This will take you to your scanned image.
