Help. I seriously can't figure out how to use my stupid scanner. bag

It's one of those big ones that's pretty much everything in one. (my mom works from home) I have no idea how to scan and I really want to put some of my drawings onto the computer.

Anyone?

Either press 'Scan' or go into either Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop and File > Import > Acquire > Twain.

There isn't an actual 'Scan' button.

I don't have Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop... But it's been done without them! My uncle was here and he scanned something and I tried to call him to ask him how but he's not home. Figures. disgust

My annoying printer/scanner/fax/teamaker has a scan button sad

Just found out, you can go on paint, and click File - From scanner or camera.

No idea how that works/if it works.

Not to sound dumb, but is your scanner actually connected and set up?

"Tell her to press every button on there."

roll eyes (sarcastic)

All I can say is, I suggest you find the website of the manufacturers, it should answer all your questions wink

Worked suprisingly well for me at first, the scan button only had very small writing next to it, and its in an awkward position.
