Links: Notes: I made a mistake when reviewing the printer. Please note, while you can save to PDF using the scanner, you cannot read PDF documents directly to the printer as I said it did. My example was true, but I forgot that I had actually loaded the PDF into The Gimp first and exported it to JPG. I actually printed the PDF from the JPG. The Gimp is a free tool that works on all platforms, so while I was incorrect in my review, you can indeed do the same thing I did.
