The machine starts scanning. If you are using the machine's scanner glass, follow the LCD instructions to complete the scanning job.
(For some models only)

You can scan from your computer with the useful application as ControlCenter. See the related FAQ's about how to use the ControlCenter with Windows/ Macintosh.
