Abstract: Network scanner software (120) that accesses scanners (114, 510, 512) over a
network to remotely scan a document. Once a scanner is reserved, no other
computer system can access the scanner. The computer system to which the scanner
is connected changes the appearance of an icon (806) representing the scanner to
indicate that the scanner is reserved. If a user of the computer system moves the
cursor over the icon, a pop-up window is displayed (908, 910) with the name of the
computer system that has the scanner reserved. Once a scanner is reserved, a user
may place a document into the scanner, push a button on the scanner, whereupon the
scanner scans the document and sends the scanned data to the computer system that
reserved the scanner (Fig. 10). A user may reserve a scanner, start a timer, and when
the timer expires, the document in the scanner is scanned and the data returned to the
computer system.
