<p>iCopy is a free and open source software that lets you combine your scanner and printer into a powerful,
but easy to use photocopier by only pressing a button.Its simple user interface lets you manage scanner
and printer options, like brightness, contrast, number of copies in a couple of seconds. Automatic Document Feeders (ADF) and duplex scanners are supported. You can also save the acquired image to file or to PDF.
As it’s small and no installation is required, iCopy is also suitable for USB pen drives.</p>

<h3 id="wiaautdll-not-registered-error">Wiaaut.dll not registered error</h3>
<p>iCopy asks if you want to register WIA Automation Layer. If it fails in doing so, you can register it manually:</p>
<ul>
<li>Copy the file wiaaut.dll that you find in iCopy directory to C:\Windows\system32\</li>
<li>Open a Prompt command with administrator rights</li>
<li><p>Enter commands: </p>
<pre><code>cd C:\Windows\system32\
regsvr32 wiaaut.dll
</code></pre></li>
<li><p>You should receive a confirmation of wiaaut.dll registration </p></li>
<li>Now iCopy should run as expected.</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="scanner-isnt-recognized-by-icopy">Scanner isn’t recognized by iCopy</h3>
<p>If you think that your scanner is WIA compatible but it isn’t recognized by iCopy, please <a href="https://sourceforge.net/p/icopy/bugs/new/">file a bug report</a>.
Please attach the .log file that is created either in <code>C:\Users\Your Username\AppData\Local\iCopy\</code> or in iCopy executable folder.</p>
