Scanning
You have several different scanning options with your Visioneer Patriot 430
scanner. Each method scans equally well, so use the one with appropriate
options for the item you are scanning.
■ OneTouch Scanner Buttons—When you press either the Simplex or
Duplex button, documents are scanned using the scan settings indicated
by the LED number. The scanned images are then sent to a software
application (known as the Destination Application) on your computer.
See “Load Documents to Scan” on page 20.
■ OneTouch Button Panel—Use this scan option when you want to scan
from the computer screen. Scanning from the on-screen OneTouch
Button Panel is the same as pressing a scanner button, except you click
an icon that represents the scanner button. See “Scan from the
OneTouch Button Panel” on page 23.
■ TWAIN Interface—This option uses your scanner’s TWAIN interface
to scan. The TWAIN interface is available from the PaperPort software
that you received with your scanner, as well as from other programs such
as Microsoft Word. See “Scanning with the TWAIN Interface” on
page 69.
■ Windows Image Acquisition (WIA)—If your computer is running
Windows XP or Windows Vista, you can use this option to scan with
the Microsoft Windows WIA interface. See “Scanning from the WIA
Interface” on page 73.
