 Operating Instructions 


Attach the CanoScan 4400F and wait for the beep. Put the object to be scanned
in the scanner and close the cover. Start the SCAN.EXE program with the proper
parameters. The file SCAN.TIF is written to the current work directory.

Enhanced scanning may be done in 2 steps for color and greyscale images.
The 1st scan without the /e parameter performs a scan with gamma 1.0 tables.
The 2nd scan with the /e parameter performs a scan with gamma 2.0 tables.
These tables are used in the 2nd scan but are loaded in the 1st scan.
