26 VISIONEER PATRIOT 680 SCANNER USER’S GUIDE
Scanning
If you selected the recommended Full Install option for your scanner’s
driver (see page 12), you have several different scanning options with
your Visioneer Patriot 680 scanner. Each method scans equally well, so
use the one with appropriate options for the item you are scanning.
■ Scanner Buttons—When you press 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) or to a storage folder on your
computer. See “Load and Scan Documents” on page 27.
■ OneTouch—Use this scan option when you want to scan from the
computer screen. Open the OneTouch scan panel and window,
adjust the scan settings as needed, put the document in the scanner,
then click the icon on the OneTouch panel. Also use this OneTouch
method of scanning if you want to access the advanced features of
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) available from the OmniPage
Pro application. See “Scan from the OneTouch Button Panel” on
page 33.
■ TWAIN Interface—This option uses your scanner’s TWAIN
interface to scan. Select the TWAIN scan settings, put the document
in the scanner, then click a button on the TWAIN interface window.
See “Scanning with the TWAIN Interface” on page 107.
■ Windows Image Acquisition (WIA)—This option uses the
Microsoft Windows set of choices for scanning. Select the WIA scan
settings, put the document in the scanner, then click a button on the
WIA window. Scanning with WIA is only available if your computer
is running Windows XP. See “Scanning with the Windows Image
Acquisition” on page 125.
■ ISIS Interface—This option uses ISIS driver to scan. Select the ISIS
scan settings, put the document in the scanner, then use your ISIS
application to scan using the ISIS Interface. See the ISIS Interface on
page 131.
