How the Smart-Touch Scanner Buttons Work
The Smart-Touch buttons on the scanner simplify frequently performed tasks, such
as scanning images or sending scanned images to a printer. By pressing any of the
Smart-Touch buttons, you can activate the function associated with that button
quickly and easily.
For each scanner button, the parameters governing the use of that button are dened
or set through the Microtek Scanner Conguration (MSC) utility in your Windows
system or through ScanPotter in your Mac OS X system. For instance, you can
dene how many copies are to be printed of your scan every time you hit the “Copy”
button. To launch the MSC utilty, exit ScanWizard EZ rst, and then double-click
the MSC icon ( ) on your desktop.
Note: Make sure that you have exited ScanWizard EZ program before using scanner
buttons when you are in Windows system; however, if you are using Mac OS X, you
need to activate ScanPotter program before using scanner buttons.
The ScanMaker i450 is equipped with seven Smart-Touch buttons for easy access
to frequently used scanner functions. To carry out a specic task, simply press the
corresponding button on the scanner. The Smart-Touch buttons are:
1. Cancel/Setup: This button cancels an ongoing scan job, or launches the Microtek
Scanner Conguration utility when the scanner is idle.
2. Scan: This button captures images that can be automatically saved as les or sent
to another application for further processing.
3. Copy:This button scans the image and sends it to your printer, transforming your
scanner and printer into a convenient copy station. Simply specify the number of
copies you want. To use the Copy button to print a stack of documents:
- Place the rst page on the scanner glass surface.
- Press the Copy button to scan an image to a le, then automatically output to
your specied printer.
- Load the next page and press the Copy button again. The scanner works in
similar fashion to your printer, printing documents one after another with no
interruptions.
4. E-mail: This button scans the image and delivers it directly to your e-mail editor.
5. OCR: This button performs OCR (Optical Character Recognition) of a document
and converts it to a fully editable digital le. Saves time from retyping documents
into your word processor.
6. PDF: This button captures an image and automatically saves it as an Adobe
Portable Document Format (PDF) le for immediate viewing with the Adobe
Acrobat software.

commonly used functions, including:
- Power Saving: Turns the scanner lamp ON or OFF to save power and lamp
life.

need a second “Scan” button with different parameters from the rst Scan

Positioning Your Originals
Positioning Reflective Originals
To scan reective originals such as photos and printed matter, use the Black Mat
came with your scanner package.

glass surface. Position the top end of the photo towards the back of the scanner.
2. Place the Black Mat that came with your scanner on top of the photo, then lower

with the correct type of lm to be scanned, such as 35mm slides and lmstrip. Using
the lm holder ensures precise alignment of lm to yield consistent scans, and aids in
the correct performance of the automatic cropping* feature during lm scanning.

conditions below should all be met:
• Your computer's operating system should be Windows or Mac OS X.
• The lm holder is correctly aligned on the scan bed.
• The scan material is Positive or Negative Film, with the slide or lmstrip to be
scanned correctly loaded on the lm holder.
• For Windows: In the Scan Job Queue window of ScanWizard EZ - Professional
Mode, the “Multiple Auto-crop for EZ-Lock Film Holder” option is checked.
For Mac OS X: In the Scanner Settings control panel of ScanPottter, the
“Automatic Detection” option in the Scan Frame drop-down menu is selected.
