Just use a program to acquire the image with the supplied twain driver, which by the way, is a nice piece of software. And fast. Got my samsung hardwired to my network. My wireless laptops can print to it no problem. Wakes from sleep fast, prints fast, and its quiet. Nothing to complain about. It really is like having a full blown office machine in your home. 11 of 11 people found the following review helpful. Update - Uh oh By dlmh Update:My 1 year warrantee ran out 2 months ago. Scanner started to cause vertical black lines to appear on one side. There was probably dust or something on the scanner lens. I cleaned the external glass but it was no help. Since I was beyond the warrantee Samsung referred me to a service center nearby. Just for the hell of it I decided to pick up the printer and jump up and down, hoping to dislodge whatever was causing the blockage. It worked!I had a problem like this with an old scanner and all I had to do was take off the outer glass and clean the scanner lens. But ... jumping up and down worked just as well.Original review:Have had the machine for a year. During that time I used up the included toner cartridge and much of a replacement cartridge, with about 3400 total pages (according to the printer).It's given me no trouble at all. Print quality is fine (I'm a home user but I would not hesitate to use this as a small office machine).Downsides are minor for me, but may not be for others:1. It's relatively loud. I have it set to go into sleep mode almost immediately so it doesn't make any noise in between printing. But it makes a warm up whoosing sound before it prints and the printing itself is relatively noisy.2. It's not a network scanner. It can only scan to a computer that is connected via usb.Other than that I really can't say a negative thing about it.Set up is easy, either via the on-board lcd or even better, via a web interface over the network. My advice - give it a network address asap via the lcd. Then enter the address as a url in your PC's browser and you can access all the other settings over an easy to use web page.Have had no problems at all with the scanner, the automatic document feeder or manual feeder. The included software is rudimentary but is simple and works fine.One aesthetic issue: The Amazon product image makes it look like the paper tray is a draw. It is not. It's a fixed tray that protrudes a few inches in front of the printer when the tray contains paper. The protruding portion is covered by an opaque plastic cover. When the paper tray is empty, the front part is hinged so it can be lifted to be flush with the printer (as in the image). This is both a positive and negative. When open, it takes up a little more desk space. But the paper is always in view so you easily tell if you are running low. Personally I never lift up the tray. 16 of 19 people found the following review helpful. I love this machine By V. Muccioli Although I did not buy it from amazon, I feel this is the best place to review it. I bought this printer cheaper than it probably should have been. There was an easyrebate involved. So I was thrilled about that.When I got the box opened it took about 5 minutes to set it up. I installed the drivers and everything was up and running in no time. It was a real breeze. I have it set up via USB connection, so I cannot comment about its network capabilities. I did run a series of tests on its scanning however.There are a couple of different parameters to set for the scanner. There are the resolution and color settings. For resolution, obviously the higher the resolution, the finer the image. If you are scanning text however, it doesnt require very high resolution. I found all the text on my utility bills legible at 200dpi, just one setting above the lowest
