      • Quality: High Quality
      • File format: Searchable PDF (this will do some character recognition)
      • Do not add a passcode
    • Click Next
    • Use the Document: One Side option (your work should only be on one side of the page) and click next.
    • Put your document in the zerox DocuMate 5445 face down, top down.
    • Push the green "SCAN" icon on the touchscreen.
    • Check to make sure that all pages scanned; if all is good, click Next

      • The other options are not currently working - this will be updated if they get fixed.
