Using the Scanner Functionality

1. Open the program you want the scanned images to go to

The scanning functionality works as an import source in applications. This means that you have
to open the program you want to scan into and then use the import options in that program to
trigger the scanning application.

For example:
In Photoshop: File >> Import >> Ricoh 2035-45 Multifunction
In Adobe Acrobat: File >> Create PDF... >> From Scanner >> Ricoh 2035-45 Multifunction
In Microsoft Office: Insert >> Picture >> From Scanner or Camera*

*There is a known issue using Microsoft Office XP applications with the scanner function that does not let you use 'Start from
Scanner' functionality. This is explained further on in this document.

2. Configure the scanner with your preferences for the scan job

The scanning application will then open to allow you to configure settings and customizations for
your scan job.

The screenshot below shows what the application will look like:

Use the "Select" menu to bring up the selection box for which printer you would like to use for
scanning. The current printer selected will be displayed at the top of the window. The list has
been configured to be displayed according to printer queue names for easy identification.

Here is a sample situation for someone wanting to scan a few pages of text documents
with graphics into Adobe Acrobat:

1. Open Adobe Acrobat and go to File >> Create PDF... >> From Scanner >> Ricoh 1045

Multifunction Printer

2. Use the 'Select' button to bring up the printer menu for which printer you want to use

3. Under 'Mode' we would use 'Photo' since the document has text and graphics

4. For 'Document' we would use ADF (Automatic Document Feeder) to process all pages at once

5. 'Size' would be left as is

6. Make sure the 'Start from Scanner' box is checked

7. Press the 'Scan' button

8. You would then walk over to the printer, put the pages into the page feeder and hit the 'Start'

button, once all the pages have been processed, return to your desk.

All the scanned documents are now scanned electronically and opened in Acrobat!
