How can I launch a printer scanner from Spotlight? I can go to the "Printers &amp; Scanners" panel from Spotlight, but I cannot call the scanner directly. Is there any way to make Spotlight index a shortcut to the default printer's Scanner app?

It would save the 2 to 3 clicks it takes to click on the correct printer if needed, click on the "Scan" tab and finally on the "Open Scanner" button.

(It's rather counter-intuitive to have to go to a System Preferences panel to be able to scan a document)

[Edit: I mean this app:]
Easy,


Open System Preferences
Select the "Printers &amp; Scanners" control panel
Select the Scanner that you want to create the shortcut for
Once the scanning window opens, right-click on the Scanner's application icon on the right side of your dock, and select "option/keep on dock"
Next time you want to open the scanner, just click on its docked icon
If it is a combo printer/scanner, step 5 may open the printer queue window instead of going straight to scan mode. If this occurs, simply the click the "Scan" button that shows in the Printer Queue window.
