Scan from a TWAIN-compliant or a WIA-compliant
program
The device is TWAIN-complaint and WIA-compliant and works with programs that support
TWAIN-compliant and WIA-compliant scanning devices. While you are in a TWAIN-
compliant or WIA-compliant program, you can gain access to the scanning feature and
scan an image directly into the program.
TWAIN is supported for all Windows and Mac OS operating systems.
For Windows operating systems, WIA is supported only for Windows XP and Windows
Vista direct connections. WIA is not supported for the Mac OS.
Scan from a TWAIN-compliant program
Generally, a software program is TWAIN-compliant if it has a command such as
Acquire, File Acquire, Scan, Import New Object, Insert from, or Scanner. If you are
unsure whether the program is compliant or you do not know what the command is called,
see the software program Help or documentation.
Start the scan from within the TWAIN-compliant program. See the software program Help
or documentation for information about the commands and steps to use.
NOTE: If you start a TWAIN scan while a fax is being received, an error message
will be displayed and the scan is not performed. Wait until the fax has been received
and then restart the scan.
Scan from a WIA-compliant program
Generally, a software program is WIA-compliant if it has a command such as Picture/
From Scanner or Camera in the Insert or File menu. If you are unsure whether the
program is compliant or you do not know what the command is called, see the software
program Help or documentation.
Start the scan from within the WIA-compliant program. See the software program Help
or documentation for information about the commands and steps to use.
Edit a scanned original
