KI 1514 How to scan documents

(updated )
All copiers and multi function machines with glass plate or sheet feeder can be used for scanning documents. ControlSuite also offers simple functions for scanning from paper to editable documents.
  1. Log in by tapping your key card on the card reader, or touch the display to type your user name and password:

      
  2. Place the document you want to scan in the sheet feeder or on the glass plate if that is more convenient.
    There are three standard "scan flows" available:
    1. E-mail PDF – This corresponds to the previous «Scan to e-mail». Sends you a PDF file with the document image, not editable.
    2. E-mail Word – This gives an editable file in Word format (docx).
    3. E-mail PDF Searchable – Results in a PDF with editable tekt and images. You will need a PDF editor (e.g. Adobe Acrobat Pro) to edit the resulting file. (But you will be able to search for text in the document with a standard PDF reader such as Acrobat.)

         
  3. Press Scan to start the scanning, or Change if you want to change the settings for the scanning.

      
  4. If you press  Change, you will get this display. Make the desired changes and press OK to return to step 3.

      
  5. Scanning in progress….

      
  6. Press Send to finish the scanning and send the document. Press Start to scan additional page(s).
      
  7. The scanned file will be sent to your e-mail address.
    Remember to log out by pressing Log out on the top right of the display or by tapping your card on the card reader.
