SETTING UP THE SCANNER

You can use your USB scanner with applications that support Twain scanning. Twain is a standard method that computers use to receive images from scanners, digital cameras, and other image-capture devices.

To set up the scanner to work with an application, you must first select the scanner as the one to use for Twain scanning. Setting up with an application is normally a one-time-only process. Setting up again is usually only necessary if you changed the set up to a different scanner, camera, or other device.

Note: The following instructions are for setting up the scanner with the MGI PhotoSuite III SE software that you received on the CD with your USB scanner. You can use the scanner with other applications, but the setup steps for each application may be different. For example, several applications use a Select Source command from the File menu to set up the scanner. Please see the user’s manual that you received with an application to determine how to set up a Twain scanner with that application.

To set up the scanner with the MGI PhotoSuite III SE application:

1.From the Windows Desktop, click the Start button, select Programs and select MGI PhotoSuite III SE.

2.After the MGI PhotoSuite III application starts, click the Get button at the top of the window.
