Using the TWAIN datasource

Terminology and features

How do I begin?

The TWAIN datasource is software that communicates with your scanner. It is provided by Kodak with the i1200/i1300 Scanners. Many scanning applications support the TWAIN standard and this datasource can be used to interface with these applications.

This section provides descriptions of the scanner features using options on the TWAIN datasource tabs. If you are using the TWAIN datasource, follow the procedures in this section to set up your scanner. If you are using the ISIS driver, see the section entitled, “Using the ISIS driver” later in this chapter.

For the purpose of this manual, all displayed dialog boxes assume the features available on the Kodak i1220 or i1320 Scanner (duplex scanner). If you have a Kodak i1210 or i1310 Scanner (simplex scanner) all options are limited to one-sided scanning only.

Throughout this manual the terms “dual stream” and “automatic color detection” are used. On the new TWAIN datasource interface dual stream refers to Multiple; and automatic color detection refers to One- based on document content. Both of these options can be configured on the Advanced and Content Settings tabs.

If you have used previous scanners from Kodak, you may be familiar with many of the image processing features already. With the new graphical user interface in the TWAIN datasource, some of the names of those features have changed. Refer to Appendix B, Feature Map for a cross reference of old feature names with new feature names.

First you need to select a Settings Shortcut you want to use from the main Kodak Scanner window. Each Settings Shortcut is separately named and contains the scanner settings needed to do a certain scanning job. For additional flexibility, Settings Shortcuts also include device settings, like Energy Star and transport time-outs. By default, the i1200 and i1300 Series Scanners come with predefined Settings Shortcuts for the most common scanner tasks. Using these Settings Shortcuts can save you time and makes it easy to be productive. For example, if you want to scan color business documents and convert them to a JPEG file, all you need to do is choose the Settings Shortcut that is configured with the settings that best meet your scanning needs.

You can alter and create Settings Shortcuts for your specific scanning needs. In order to create your own custom Settings Shortcut, select one of the default Settings Shortcuts to use as a template, make your desired changes to the settings and then save the Settings Shortcut with a name that is meaningful to you. You cannot modify the default Setting Shortcuts.
