Windows Scanner Wizard Defaults
Has anyone noticed while using the Windows Scan and Print Wizard that the default scanning size on a WinXP machine is set to Legal size paper? We do a lot of scanning at some of our offices with electronic health records and the like, and having to change the scanning size every time we scan a document can really add up. We opted to write instructions for these offices to use the Windows scan feature just because it will work on any workstation, and not require the proprietary scanner software to be installed.

Does anyone know how to change the default scanning size in Windows?

NO ... Mine defaults to standard size .. probably because I have a standard size scanner.
Are these scanners Legal size or Standard size ??

A really good, and expensive, Psychiatrist will keep you talking till you solve your own problem … but not too quickly.

I see no option to change my scanner size using XP’s Camera n Scanner wizard.

I’m guessing that somewhere along the line … you’ve had to install some software to get the Scanner Twain driver needed to run the Scanner.
It’s also a guess that this is where the default is.

This’ll bump you back to the top … Maybe a real Psychiatrist with a Visioneer Strobe XP 450 will see it.
