B. Desktop distribution scan
The network scanner sends back the document directly to the user's
desktop. At that time, the desktop application, Sharpdesk, is automati-
cally booted. Use of Sharpdesk allows image view, correction, attach-
ment of note, edit, character recognition (OCR), document save, and
conversion into PDF format. In addition, scan, print, send function (e-
mail, FAX), document combine, and boot of other application can be
made easily by use of the user interface. The option of image correc-
tion can be also set.
