For scanning we need a device calls scanner. Scanning is transferring physical documents or images to a digital image. This is done using the same technology a copier uses by taking an intense snapshot of the document. However, instead of printing off copies of that snapshot, a scanner transfers it to a computer. Nowadays 2in1, 3in1 or all in one printers and photocopy machines has capability to scan any documents.
