The settings for the Windows Event Manager for the TOSHIBA e-STUDIOxxx (where xxx is the model name of your unit) device allow the user to take advantage of the TOSHIBA Button Manager to take control of events from Windows and send scanned images to any of six different applications according to the Button Manager setting.

This can be done with the Windows OS showing the Event Manager selection dialog or directly into a selected application if the Button Manager is the only allowed handler for device events from the TOSHIBA e-STUDIOxxx (where xxx is the model name of your unit).

This is done by changing the Windows device settings for the e-STUDIOxxx (where xxx is the model name of your unit) in the Scanner and Camera device settings in the Control Panel.

This is the Control Panel Properties dialog for "scanners and Cameras".

Windows Platforms provide a mechanism for software to handle external events for a scanner device like the TOSHIBA e-STUDIOxxx (where xxx is the model name of your unit) series products. This mechanism is controlled by the device manager on a device basis.

The path an event takes to get to the user’s selected application depends upon the event settings for the device.
