That would be reasonable for a program that lets you open files explicitly, but not for one with a user interface so sparse that it shows no content unless you have scanned something. A simple option would of course be to put up a prompt on first run asking if you want to scan. If the user says "No", and then doesn't find any content, they'll make the connection.

(Note: I commented to Canola team that the eye icons were very small and users may get confused initially )
Thanks!
