Check in with Lab Staff before starting your scans.
Use a mylar sleeve for any “dirty” media. This includes charcoal, graphite, etc. “Clean” media may be scanned directly. This includes maps, photographs, collages, watercolor, etc. Not sure? Ask the staff!
To scan, log into the computer connected to the scanner using your PSU login and open the Smartworks Pro software shortcut on the desktop.
Scan your piece and save the file to a USB flash drive or Google Drive, or email it to yourself.
CLEAN UP! Wipe off any media transferred to the scanner or the mylar sleeve. Get help from Lab Staff if the scanner rollers or other concealed areas of the scanner get dirty. Do not leave the scanner dirty. Students who fail to properly clean the scanner will be charged a $25 fee.
Log out of the machine and return sleeves to Lab Staff.
