====== B. Using the division scanner ======

There are two options to scan with the division scanner:

  * [[#B.1. With the division laptop]]

  * [[#B.2. With your own computer]]
 

===== B.1. With the division laptop =====

To print with the division laptop, you need **an account on teddi**. If you do not know what this means or you do not have such access, ask Florido.

  - Turn on the scanner 
  - Turn on the laptop (could be in sleep mode)
  - Login with your teddi username and password.
  - Locate a program called "SimpleScan". Usually is in the menu as in the picture: [pic]
  - Place the original in the scanner making sure to align to the page format, then close the lid
  - To scan a page, click on scan:
    - If you have a long documents with many pages, simple scan will add the pages automatically every time you press the scan button
    - Once you're done with all page, you can save the document. Default is png but if you change the file extension to ''.pdf'' SimpleScan will create a multipage pdf. The file will be saved in the path you decide, by default your home folder on teddi.
  - To start to scan a new document, press the + icon [pic] and repeat the above steps.
  - Once done :!: LOGOUT :!: from the laptop. One can logout by clicking on the following menu entry and dialog:
  - Turn off the scanner
  - Put the machine back to sleep 

===== B.2. With your own computer =====

  - If you're using:
    - **Linux**: you must have the sane scanner libraries (they contain the scanner drivers) and SimpleScan to be able to scan. 
      - On ubuntu: <code:bash>sudo apt-get install saned simplescan</code>
    - **Windows**: you need to install the scanner drivers. Windows 10 might detect it automatically but if not, you can search for them here: [[https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-scanjet-4850-photo-scanner/447373]]. 
      - :!: NOTE :!: If you install the scanner drivers by yourself, you must FIRST install the drivers and THEN connect the scanner USB connector to your laptop.
  - Disconnect the scanner USB connection from the division laptop [[pic]], and connect it to your computer.
  - Turn on the scanner.
  - If on 
    - Linux, follow the steps [[#B.1. With the division laptop|B.1.4]]-[[#B.1. With the division laptop|B.1.7]]
    - Windows, use the program you fancy.
  - When done, 
    - **turn off** the scanner
    - **reconnect its USB to the division laptop**
