  4. Once the program opens, click on “Scan Picture” in the column of buttons on the left.
  5. 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”.
  6. Click “Scan.”
  7. Wait for the scanner to warm up.
