Importing scanned images using WIA (Windows Image Acquisition) Support

To import images from a scanner using WIA Support:

1. Choose File > Import > WIA Support.
2. Choose a destination on your computer for saving your image files.
3. Click Start.
4. Make sure Open Acquired Images in Photoshop is checked. If you have a large number of images to import, or if you want to edit the images at a later time, deselect it.
5. Make sure Unique Subfolder is selected if you want to save the imported images directly into a folder named with the current date.
6. Select the scanner that you want to use.
Note: If the name of your scanner does not appear in the submenu, verify that the software and drivers were properly installed and that the scanner is connected.
7. Choose the kind of image you want to scan:
• Color picture to use the default settings for scanning color images
• Grayscale picture to use the default settings for scanning grayscale images
• Black and White picture or Text to use the default settings
• Click Adjust the Quality of the Scanned Picture to use custom settings
8. Click preview to view the scan. Crop the scan if needed by pulling the rectangle so it surrounds the image.
9. Click Scan.
10. The scanned image will be saved in the BMP file format.
