Scanner Driver Basics
Before using the printer as a scanner, you must install the printer driver.
The scanner driver is a program that converts image files you have
scanned and then sends the converted data to the computer. The scanner
driver works on processing the data so the computer can use it.
For instructions on installing the scanner driver, refer to the User’s Guide.
The Color Image Scanner Cartridge IS-32 operates in combination with the
special IS Scan Software (i.e., IS Scan scanner driver and IS Scan Plus
utility program). These two programs provide many features that allow you
to perform simple colour adjustments to improve the quality of the original
image or enhance the image for artistic effect.
If you are using a TWAIN-compliant graphics application program, you
need the IS Scan scanner driver. You can run IS Scan from within a
TWAIN-compliant graphics application program. After scanning the
image, transfer the image data to the application program to edit,
enhance and save the data, as needed.
If you are not using a TWAIN-compliant graphics application program, use
the IS Scan Plus utility for Windows. IS Scan Plus allows you to scan,
edit, enhance and save the image data.
