After you install the software from the Drivers and Utilities CD, you can start scanning images using either the operator panel or applications such as Dell ScanCenterTM, PaperPort and AdobePhotoShop. PaperPort is the scanning program provided with your multi-function printer.

Dell ScanCenter is a PaperPort application that enables you to scan items and send them directly to PaperPort or other programs on your computer without first running PaperPort. Dell ScanCenter runs as a separate application from the Windows Start Menu and displays the Dell ScanCenter bar. For more information about using Dell ScanCenter, refer to PaperPort’s Help menu. Icons on the Dell ScanCenter bar represent the programs that are limited to PaperPort and to Dell ScanCenter.
