Default Scanner Settings
in [Scanners]
|
From: Abie on 3 Dec 2009 15:22 I've got an HP LaserJet M1522nf and can't figure out if there is a way to change the default scanner settings. The one in particular I need to set is for the brightness. For some reason I have to adjust the brightness every time I scan or the document is so light I can barely read it. I do not have the HP software installed, just the basic drivers needed for printing/scanning/faxing. Mostly I just use the Scanner/Camera Wizard, the Microsoft Office Document Scanner program or scan into Adobe Acrobat (use the WIA option , not TWAIN). Thanks! Abigail

You must have at a minimum the Twain Driver installed. If you do have or will install the HP Twain driver, you can use Irfanview Viewer as a Twain Scanner interface. http://www.irfanview.com/ You need to install the Irfanview Plug-in also In the HP Twain Driver you can use a "Pro" mode or Advanced Mode to set the parameters for scanning. Much more control over the scan parameters. In Irfanview on the file menu, select source first, then scan/acquire. Once the source is selected, you do not have to do that step again, unless you change scanner. -- CSM1 http://www.carlmcmillan.com --
