Scanning

From Molecular Modeling Wiki

General

There are two network scanners available for general use.

HP OfficeJet 8500

The first scanner is a part of HP OfficeJet 8500 multifunction printer so it is good enough to scan common documents and images, which need to be converted to an electronic form (for, for example, an e-mail delivery).

The device can be found by the Jiri Polach's desk and can be used without any extra permissions.

Using

To scan you document

1. Open the scanner lid and place your document on the scanner glass.
   or
   Insert you multipage document in the automatic feeder on top of the device. See pictograms on the feeder to orient printed side properly.
2. Touch the device screen and wake the device up if the screen is blank.
3. Touch the Scan icon, the select Network Folder and COMMON on CLARA.
4. If necessary, change the scanner settings; however, as the default is configured to scan a common document with good quality and save if to a PDF file, there will usually be no changes necessary.
