1) Choose Start and then select Control Panel. (Or, click on the magnifying glass and search for Control Panel.)
2) In Control Panel, click on View Scanners and Cameras, which gives you a dialog box showing your scanner(s).
3) Click the scanner icon for the scanner for which you want to set defaults.
4) Still in the same dialog box, click the Scan Profiles button. Another dialog window will then open.
5) At this point, choose a scanner and click Edit. The Edit Default Profile dialog window will open.
6) In the Edit Default Profile dialog, make any desired changes for default scan settings.
7) Click the Save Profile button when changes are complete, and save/exit out of any remaining open dialogs.
In the Edit Default Profile dialog window, there will be a number of general and scanner-specific settings that can be modified. There will also be a check box to make this information the default scanning profile.
