Operation Steps
The copyboard uses an image scanner to scan characters or diagrams drawn using special markers (four col-
ors). When the Color Print or B/W Print button is pressed, the image on the screen is printed out to the
printer. When a USB memory device or computer is connected, the image on the screen is saved as image data
when the Save button is pressed. (For the memory for computer storage, one sheet’s worth of data is
saved, overwriting previously saved data.)
Furthermore, when network settings are made, image files can be saved on the copyboard or FTP server.

Saving Image Files on a Computer/Deleting Image Files
Examples of operations follow for saving the image files in the USB memory device to the hard disk of the per-
sonal computer, and for deleting the folder when the USB memory capacity is full. (There are various methods
that can be used for saving and deleting including the use of Explorer.) See the instruction manual of your per-
sonal computer or the software that you are using for information about using a personal computer.
The name of the folder on the USB memory device is “CB_Image”. Image files are stored in this folder.
By factory setting upon purchase, image files are named “PV-xxx.jpg” (JPEG files), where “xxx” refers to a
3-digit number starting from 001 (ex.: PV-001.jpg).
Images can be stored in JPEG, PNG or PDF format, selectable in the copyboard settings (“CB Setup”). (See
