- Login to DocFinity.
- Select Workspaces > Scanning
- A new panel will open with the scanning menu. On the bottom left of the profile page, select Scanning Settings Settings. This will open the first scanner settings page.
- The scanner connected to the computer should appear by default. Select the desired paper source: ADF (auto-feeder) or Flatbed, then check off display under Scanner interface and select Next
- Select the desired Scan Profile from the drop-down menu. Category and Document Type are not required but can be configured if you know how the documents are to be indexed.
- Select Scan
Scanned documents will appear in the Document Viewer panel. If multi-page is selected in the Scan Profile, the document will be scanned as one file with multiple pages (this would be used to index multiple pages for one student). If single page is selected in the Scan Profile, each page will create a separate file (this would be used if multiple copies of the same document need to be indexed for different students). Since display was selected under Scanner interface, a second scanning settings window will appear. This page is used to change or modify basic or advanced settings on the scanner connected to the computer. Modifying any of these settings will overwrite the previous scan setup (for multi, single page, duplex, simplex, etc.) - Scan Profiles. This window will always default to the settings shown below and rest each time even if the settings have been modified. - Select Scan
