Not sure how old this post is, but I found a solution that might help others with this. I wrote a guide for the company, hope this helps. Don't hesitate to get in touch if you get stuck.


Since the implementation of Office 2010, the standard “Scan to Word” no longer works. So instead we can add a Macro, to simplify the steps.

 In Word 2010, click the “View” tab.
 Click “Macros” then from the dropdown menu select “View Macros”
 In the box that appears click “Create”
 Insert the following:

Sub InsertFromScanner()
On Error Resume Next
WordBasic.InsertImagerScan
End Sub

 Click “File” followed by “Save Normal”
 Close the window.
 Back in Word 2010, click “File”
 Click “Options”
 Click “Customize Ribbon”
 Click “New Tab”
 Rename it to “Insert From Scanner”
 Rename the underlying group to the same name.
 From the dropdown menu on the left, select “Macros”
 Make sure you have selected your new tab/group in the list on the right.
 Find your newly created macro in the list on the left, select it, and click “Add”

 Click “OK”
 You should now see the menu option on the top of your window.
 Click “Insert From Scanner”
 Click the macro.

This will now scan your documents directly to your Word file. Be patient, depending of how many documents you are scanning in, this could take some time. There won’t be a message on the screen, but you will be able to hear the scanner working if you’re close by. You won’t see anything until the last page has been scanned.
