24VISIONEER STROBE XP 200 SCANNER INSTALLATION GUIDE
SCANNING FROM THE PAPERPORT SOFTWARE
Instead of using the AutoScan feature, you can scan from the PaperPort software application. This is particularly helpful when you’re using PaperPort to file and save scanned items or if you want to preview an image and adjust scanning settings prior to scanning.
A Note About Your Scanner and the Twain standard: If your computer is running Windows 98, Me, or 2000, your scanner can use the Twain standard for scanning. Twain is a widely recognized procedure 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 software, please refer to their user guides.
If your computer is running Windows XP: instead of using the Twain standard, your scanner uses 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 XP too. See “Scanning from a Computer Running Windows XP” on page 30.
