When a Scanner Button or MP Navigator EX Button Is Pressed,
a Wrong Application Starts
Check: Change the MP Navigator EX settings.
Applications that correspond with the Scanner Buttons are managed by MP Navigator EX. After installing
all the applications from the
Setup CD-ROM
, the print function is assigned to Copy and Print, mail-related
function to Mail, Notepad (included with Windows) to OCR, and ArcSoft PhotoStudio to Scan by default.
You can replace the assigned application with another application by changing the settings in MP
Navigator EX.
Assign an application to PDF.
Application Settings
Specify an application to open scanned images. The name of the specified application is displayed
in Application Settings.
To change the application:
Method 1
Click Set, select the application to assign, then click Open.
Make sure that the application is an executable file.
Normally a folder named after the application or its manufacturer is created in the Program Files
folder, and a file with a ".exe" extension is saved in it. Double-click the file to make sure that the
corresponding application starts.
Note
If extensions are hidden, from the Start menu, click Control Panel > Folder Options > View, then
deselect the Hide extensions for known file types checkbox.
Method 2
Drag and drop the executable file on the desktop or the Start menu, or its shortcut to Application
Settings.
Important
Some applications may not start.
Some applications may not start if the shortcut is assigned.
To cancel the application setting:
Click Reset.
Important
If you press a Scanner Button to which an application is not set in Application Settings, a
message requesting you to specify an application appears. Click OK, then select an
application in the Select Application screen.
