Scanning from PaperPort
Scanning from PaperPort
Instead of using the scanner buttons or the One Touch Button
Panel to scan, you can scan from the TWAIN interface. The
PaperPort application that you received with your scanner uses the
TWAIN interface for scanning. This scanning method is particularly
helpful when you’re using PaperPort to file and save scanned
items, or if you want to adjust scanning settings prior to scanning.
• If your computer is running Windows XP or Me—you can
scan using the TWAIN Interface or the Microsoft Windows
Image Acquisition (known as WIA) interface.
• If your computer is running Windows 2000—using WIA is
not available.
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.
This guide shows how to scan with the PaperPort TWAIN interface,
but 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 software,
please refer to their user guides.
