22 VISIONEER STROBE XP 450 SCANNER INSTALLATION GUIDE
Scanning from
PaperPort
Instead of using the scanner button, you can scan from the PaperPort
software application. Use this method if you want to preview an image
and adjust scanning settings prior to scanning.
YOUR SCANNER AND THE TWAIN STANDARD
Your scanner uses the TWAIN standard for scanning. TWAIN is a
widely recognized methodology that computers use to receive images
from scanners, digital cameras, and other digital devices. The PaperPort
software application that you received with your scanner uses the
TWAIN standard, and this guide shows how to scan with it. Many
other graphics and imaging applications also comply with the TWAIN
standard, so you can use your scanner with those applications too. To
use your scanner with other TWAIN-compliant software, please refer to
their user guides.
IF YOUR COMPUTER IS RUNNING WINDOWS ME OR XP
Instead of using the TWAIN standard, your scanner can also use
Microsoft’s Windows Image Application (WIA) standard for scanning,
which is also available from other applications. Therefore, you can use
your scanner with other applications on a computer running Windows
Me or XP too. See “Scanning from Windows Me or XP” on page 45.
