You can scan documents and photos using your Canon G3770 printer with the help of its built-in scanner. Here's a step-by-step guide:
1. Prepare the Document or Photo
- Place the document or photo on the scanner glass. Ensure it's flat and centered.
- Close the scanner lid.
2. Access the Scanner

- Select the "Scan" option. This may be labeled differently depending on the software version.
3. Configure Scan Settings

4. Start Scanning
- Click the "Scan" button.

5. Save or Print Your Scan
