Video Transcript

"Hello, my name is Tony Ramirez from Tampa Bay, Florida and on behalf of Expert Village this is how to setup your scanner, let's begin. So your photo is scanned and you touched it up, you done everything you want to do with it. Once you're done you're going to want to go and save it of course, so of course this is using photoshop now. In the actual scan software there will be save options too if you want to save it for web or save it for actual print. In this case I will show you cause all the settings are pretty much the same. I just go ahead and hit save for web in photoshop. As you can see my picture is pretty big cause we did scan it at three hundred DPI so that's the whole picture. You want to save it either as a JPEG or JEF or even a bit map, either way it's your choice. This will actually compress it small enough in file size for the internet transfer, let's go ahead and get out of that. So let's say you want to print it. Go ahead and go down to print and select our printer which is all in one here, under properties you have tons of settings of course. You want the print quality to be best or your highest quality which ever quality standards your printer will have. Sometimes it will have a photo quality or something like that so we'll go ahead and click that, say paper type or photo paper, premium glossy, then photo realistic and everything else is pretty much the same. It's going to print an eight and a half by eleven page of course standard, full color we can change things here if you want to print it just using gray scale which of course if black and white. Once we're done hit ok and hit print, once it prints out it will actually print out in full color, full color quality print. So those are the basics for scanning, go ahead and scan it, put it into your computer, edit it anyway, you want save it for the web or print it out, it's your choice."
