Scanning is the process of converting text and pictures into an electronic format for your computer. You can scan almost anything (photos, magazine articles and text documents) on the HP All-in-One.

You can use the scanning features of the HP All-in-One to do the following:

• Scan text from an article into your word processor and quote it in a report.

• Print business cards and brochures by scanning a logo and using it in your publishing software.

• Send photos to friends and relatives by scanning your favorite prints and including them in e-mail messages.

• Create a photographic inventory of your house or office.

• Archive treasured photos in an electronic scrapbook.

If you are using the HP Photosmart Software, the Optical Character
