Starting EPSON TWAIN HS 
There are two ways to scan; with an application that supports 
TWAIN, or with the 
 
a Start button.
If you .. 
❏ use an application that supports EPSON TWAIN HS to scan, 
open your application (see “Starting EPSON TWAIN HS 
through your application software” below).
❏ want to scan an image directly to your application without 
opening EPSON TWAIN HS or the TWAIN-compliant 
application every time, setup the 
 
a Start button and the 
application to work with (see Chapter 5, “Using the Start 
Button.”). Then simply press the 
 
a Start button.
Note:
❏ In a stand-alone configuration, the Start Button feature is 
available only on the Windows Millennium Edition, 98, and 
2000.
❏ Even if your application supports TWAIN, some features of 
EPSON TWAIN HS may not be available depending on the 
application software.
