Epson Scan lets you control all aspects of scanning and includes three modes.

• Full Auto Mode lets you scan quickly and easily, without selecting any settings or previewing your image. This is the default mode in Epson Scan.

• Home Mode lets you customize a few scanning settings and check their effects with a preview image.

• Professional Mode gives you total control of your scanning settings and lets you check their effects with a preview image.

You can use Epson Scan as a “standalone” program to scan your image to a file on your computer.

The Epson Creativity Suite is a group of programs that lets you scan, save, manage, edit, and print your images. Using the main program, Epson File Manager, you can scan and save your images, and then display them in an easy-to-use window.

From Epson File Manager, you can select multiple images and print them, drag them to a document, or attach them to an e-mail message.

You can use these project programs in the Epson Creativity Suite by selecting them in Epson File Manager or by selecting them in the Epson Creativity Suite folder and running them as standalone programs.

• Scan and Copy to print your scanned image on a printer connected to your computer. You can enlarge and reduce, print in color or black & white, restore faded colors, remove dust, enhance text, and adjust image brightness and contrast. For details, see Using the Scanner as a Copier.

• Copy to Fax to scan and then fax your images, if you have already installed a fax program or driver. See the Epson File Manager or Copy to Fax program Help for instructions.

• Attach to e-mail to open your e-mail program and attach your image to an e-mail message. You can also adjust the image size before you attach it. For details, see Scanning Directly to an E-mail.
