To import images from a scanner using WIA Support: - Choose File > Import > WIA Support.
- Choose a destination on your computer for saving your image files.
- Click Start.
- 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.
- Make sure Unique Subfolder is selected if you want to save the imported images directly into a folder named with the current date.
- 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. - 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
- Click preview to view the scan. Crop the scan if needed by pulling the rectangle so it surrounds the image.
- Click Scan.
- The scanned image will be saved in the BMP file format.
