Scan Station: Green Library--Information Center now has three (3) Scan Stations for our patrons to use. The stations are located in the iMac cluster. Two of the scanners will scan up to 8 1/2x14 and there is one large format scanner able to scan up to 11x17 sized docs. The scan station can only be accessed by those with a valid SUNet ID. Software available for patrons to use is as follows:

• Abbyy Fine Reader --> (PC Only) OCR scanning and format converting software.
• Epson Scan --> Can be used instead of Abbyy but doesn't have as good an OCR feature as does Abbyy.
• Image Capture (MacOS Only)
• (Additional software loaded on the scan stations can be found here-- PC|Mac)

Scanning documentation can be found next to the scan station.
