Scanning

Located in PC Hall (PR106) and PC Room (YB110), the scanning workstations are free to use by students and staff. A valid Paju or Koivu account is required.

If you need frames for slide or film scanning, please ask help: Micro Computer Support, TH118.

How to scan:

1. Place desired image on the scanner.

2. Open Photoshop

3. Click on the File -> Import -> Scanner name (for example, Canon Scan 3000/3000F).

4. A scanning window opens. In this mode you can specify the image type to scan;  typically a document or image.

5. Check the image/document preview, press Preview, or scan the document, press the Scan button. Scan. If you click preview, you must click the scan button to scan the previewed image.

6. You must close the scanning window to edit and save your scanned image.

7. You can save the image by choosing File -> Save. Here you can select the image format. For example: . jpg format takes up less space than gif format.  If you save as a Photoshop file (.psd), then you may not be able to view the image with other programs.
