3.2 Scanner Operation & Document Printing

Scanning Images from within any Application (TWAIN)

1.Open your TWAIN compliant application and choose Select Source from the File menu. If the Select Source menu options are not available from the File menu, see the user guide of your application to learn how the TWAIN link is used.

2.A dialog box appears containing the different TWAIN sources that you can choose from to bring an image into your application.

3.If you are scanning from a 16-bit application (i.e. InfoCenter Lite or ImagePals GO!) you need to select the 16-bit scanning source - ImageReader ScanPro\16. If scanning from a 32-bit application (i.e. Adobe Photoshop or iPhoto Express) select the 32-bit scanning source - ImageReader ScanPro\32. Check your application manuals if you are unsure whether you are scanning from a 16 or 32 bit application.

Please note: The 32-bit scanning source is only available under Windows 95. Windows 3.1 users should always select the 16-bit scanning source.

If the wrong source is selected you will receive a TWAIN scanner driver error message. Repeat steps 1-3 and select the correct source. If the problem persists, restart your com- puter with the correct source selected.

4.If you have previously selected a different source, you will need to select the ImageReader ScanPro source again prior to scanning with the ImageReader ScanPro scanner.

5.Place the image to be scanned face down on the glass (Fig. 3-2).
