Scanners and Cameras appears in the Control Panel when you install your first scanner or digital camera. Then you can use the Scanners and Cameras feature to install other scanners, digital still cameras, digital video cameras, and image-capturing devices.
After a device is installed, Scanners and Cameras can link it to a program on your computer. For example, when you push Scan on your scanner, you can have the scanned picture automatically open in the program you want.
