摘要:
A multi-function device and a method of operation are described, wherein the multi-function device includes a scanner, a printer, and a controller. The controller is operable to communicate with the scanner, the printer, and a second device, operable to convert scanned image data to electronic data in the printer format, and operable to convert scanned image data to electronic data in a standard format readable by the second device. The controller is also responsive to a user control communicating with the controller for implementing a copy and scan mode, wherein while in the copy and scan mode, the scanner performs a single scanning operation for each page of a desired original to produce scanned image data representing the desired original. The controller converts the scanned image data to electronic data in a printer format and to electronic data in a standard format, and transmits the printer formatted electronic data to the printer and the standard formatted electronic data to the second device. The printer prints a hard copy of each page of the desired original.
