SCANNING INTERFACES

You have several different scanning options with your Visioneer Patriot 480 scanner. Each method scans equally well, so use the one with appropriate options for the item you are scanning.

■OneTouch Scanner Buttons—When you press either the Simplex or Duplex button, documents are scanned using the scan settings indicated by the LED number. The scanned images are then sent to a software application or location (known as the Destination Application) on your computer. See “Load and Scan Documents from the Input Tray” on page 24 and “Load and Scan Items from the Front Feed Tray” on page 27.

■OneTouch Button Panel—Use this scan option when you want to scan from the computer screen. Scanning from the on-screen OneTouch Button Panel is the same as pressing a scanner button, except you click an icon that represents the scanner button. See “Scan from the OneTouch Button Panel” on page 42.

■TWAIN Interface—This option uses your scanner’s TWAIN interface to scan. The TWAIN interface is available from the PaperPort software that you received with your scanner, as well as from other programs such as Microsoft Word. See “Scanning with the TWAIN Interface” on page 88.

■Windows Image Acquisition (WIA)—If your computer is running Windows XP or Windows Vista, you can use this option to scan with the Microsoft WIA interface. See “Scanning from the WIA Interface” on page 92.

■ISIS Interface—This option uses the ISIS interface for scanning. Select the ISIS scan settings, put the document in the scanner, then click a button on the ISIS window. See “Scanning with the ISIS Interface” on page 84.
