How to Scan to a Flash Drive on a Lexmark X3650
The Lexmark X3650 multifunction printer is a versatile device capable of digitizing color or monochrome documents via a built-in flatbed scanner. This allows the user to then import the captured image into a graphics editing or desktop publishing program. Sometimes, users may wish to open a scanned image on a computer that is not connected to the X3650; the device features a special port intended for this purpose, capable of interfacing with a USB flash drive.
