About this task

You can edit a scan template, as a persistent modification for all scans that will be based on this template.

You cannot permanently edit the Default scan template. If you change the configuration of Default, the changes are used in the next scan, but they are not kept in the Default scan template.

Procedure

Open a scan template (see Loading scan templates).
Make changes to the configuration settings.
Do one of the following:
- Scan Configuration Wizard: on the final page of the wizard, select I will start the scan later. Then, on the File menu, click Save or Save As and choose the scant file type.
- Scan Configuration dialog box: click Save as Template.
