It is useful to scan images and then save them to include in reports, documents, other computer work, or for your own personal use. ACS has four color scanners available for your use. There is a memo RPI.126, Scanning Images and Text available with instructions on using the scanners. Manuals are available in the labs for the scanners and Adobe Photoshop. You must be a member of the Rensselaer community.
Reservations are available during regular consulting hours.
The scanner can be reserved in 30-minute blocks with a maximum of two hours at any one time. Reservations cannot be made more than four weeks in advance. If you are using the scanner on this basis, you must be ready to relinquish it to someone with a reservation within five minutes of that person's arrival. The reservation system is an attempt to allow people to better schedule their work. People who reserve time and do not show up to use the scanner or who do not cancel their reservations will have their reservation rights removed.
