CCRMA has only one scanner, located in GCS (Grand Central Station, Knoll 2nd floor center). It's connected to a Linux workstation. Here is a short tutorial on how to use it. The best way is to use GIMP, the Gnu Image Manipulation Program.

- Start GIMP: Applications > Graphics > GNU Image Manipulation Program

- Create Scan: File > Create > XSane: Device dialog ...

- Select the desired X and Y resolution (they must be equal), and any other parameters you'd like to adjust, otherwise defaults should be ok.

- You can 'Acquire Preview' or 'Scan'
