Network Scanning
You can use EPSON Scan Server and EPSON TWAIN
Pro Network, two applications on your EPSON
Expression 1640XL Scanning Tools CD-ROM, to
share your scanner with other users in a small
workgroup.
Your network must have a scanner server (the Windows
computer connected to the scanner) and one or more
client computers. Only one client computer at a time
can connect to the scanner server and access the scanner. However, you can have more
than one scanner and scanner server on a network, so clients can choose which
scanner to use.
Here are some other requirements for sharing a scanner:
The scanner server must be an IBM pentium compatible PC computer running
Windows 2000, Windows 98, Windows 95, or Windows NT 4.0 with Service
Pack 3 or higher.
Client computers can be running Windows 2000, Windows 98, Windows 95,
Windows NT 4.0, or Macintosh System 8.0 or later.
Both the client computers and the scanner server must have a network interface
card installed, and must be running the TCP/IP protocol (see Appendix B for
instructions on installing the TCP/IP protocol).
EPSON Scan Server must be installed on the scanner server, and EPSON
TWAIN Pro Network must be installed on client computers.
