ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for scanning a photograph with PictBridge capability is provided, which includes a light source, an image sensor, a signal converter, a PictBridge encoder, and a universal serial bus (USB) controller. The light source projects a scanning light onto an object to be scanned. Upon contacting with the object to be scanned, the scanning light is reflected as a reflected light. The image sensor receives the reflected light and then transmits an image signal to the signal converter to be converted into a digital image data. The digital image signal is encoded by the PictBridge encoder to a direct-printing code. Finally, the USB controller encodes the direct-printing code into a universal serial bus signal and transmits to a printer via a USB wire, so as to print the image by the printer.
