Scanning from TWAIN
You can scan from any TWAIN scanning application instead of scanning
from the One Touch buttons on your scanner or the One Touch button
panel.
A Note About Your Scanner and the TWAIN standard: TWAIN is a
widely recognized standard that computers use to receive images from
scanners, digital cameras, and other digital devices. The TWAIN scanning
interface can be accessed from any TWAIN scanning application you have
installed on the computer. Applications such as Nuance PaperPort and
OmniPage, which were provided with your scanner, and many other
applications, can use the TWAIN interface for scanning. The TWAIN
interface, described in this section, is the one provided with your scanner
and you will see it when scanning from PaperPort or OmniPage. Other
TWAIN compliant scanning applications may also access this interface.
However, there are some applications that have their own TWAIN
interface. If you are scanning from a software application, and see the
interface shown in this section, you can use these instructions to scan with
the TWAIN interface. If you do not see this TWAIN interface, please refer
to your scanning application’s user guide for instructions.
NOTE: You can access the TWAIN interface when you’re scanning from
the One Touch software. If the One Touch configuration you are using is
set to Configure Before Scan, and the selected option is TWAIN, the
TWAIN interface opens right away when pressing the button on your
scanner without opening any other TWAIN-compliant software first.
The PaperPort software includes a complete set of help topics that answer
questions about each feature of the software. To open the Help Topics
window, press the F1 key on your keyboard or choose PaperPort help from
the Help menu.
