The Xerox Scan Utility (XSU) is a tool that allows you to scan images from the printer to your computer.
Using XSU, you can create scan templates, preview images, copy images to a folder and copy images
to email.
Note: You must install the scan drivers to use the Xerox Scan Utility. For more information, see
Installing the Printer Drivers on page 38.
Creating Scan Templates
Scan templates contain settings such as file type, resolution, and document original size. You can
specify additional settings to retain thumbnail images, or you can select a folder destination, so that
when images are scanned, they are automatically copied into a designated folder on your computer.
You must create a scan template before you can download images to your computer or import images
to applications via TWAIN or WIA.
Creating a Template with an Image View Setting
To create a new template or edit an existing template with the option to retain thumbnail images in
XSU:
1. Access the Xerox Scan Utility on your computer:
• Windows: Right-click the Xerox Scan Utility icon in the taskbar, then select Open Xerox Scan
Utility. If the icon does not appear in the taskbar, click Start, select All Programs (or Programs

and Copy to Folder tabs. From these tabs you can select the appropriate folder or email profile
settings to use with your scanned images.
