I would like to use my scanner, but have no idea how to begin.
Twain
Hi, normally, if you have installed the
complete driver set, the easiest way is to run a program with
scanning capability i.e. photoshop, or word. the software normally
given with a scanner is a 'twain' which becomes linked to the
photoshop program. If you have MS word (I'll use this as an exAmple
), ensure the scanner software is installed, the brother switched on
and connected to the computer correctly click Insert select picture
then scanner - (or it may say twain). At this point the Brother mini
program - the 'twain' should start and then follow the scanner
instructions and a scan of whAtever you have selected should be
inserted into the word document. Bit of trivia - TWAIN stands for
Tool With An Interesting Name - yup it really is!.
My printer says to refer to device troubleshooting
SOURCE: how do you use the scanner on the hp officejet
With the HP all-in-ones, you have to scan from within a program, like Photoshop, HP Image Zone or the native "Paint" program. In Photoshop, go to the "Acquire" file command; in Image Zone, the scan option is at the bottom left of the task panel; in Paint, use the file command "From Scanner or Camera".
Hope this helps,
