Scanning

You have several different scanning options with your Visioneer Strobe XP 220 scanner. Each method scans equally well, so use the one appropriate for the item you are scanning.

OneTouch—Your scanner uses Visioneer’s AutoLaunch technology that senses when a document is inserted into the page feed and starts the scanning. You simply insert a document into the scanner and it is automatically scanned using predefined settings from the OneTouch software. To change the scanner’s settings you open the OneTouch panel on the computer screen before scanning and make the changes. Then insert the document into the scanner and it will be scanned with the new settings. See “Scan Using OneTouch” on page 29.

TWAIN Interface—Use this option to scan from the PaperPort application you received with your scanner. Many other programs also use the TWAIN interface, so you can scan from them too. See “Scanning from the TWAIN Interface” on page 88.

WIA Interface—This option is the Microsoft Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) interface. You can access the WIA interface from the PaperPort software, or from other applications on your computer. See “Scanning from the WIA Interface” on page 105. The WIA interface is only available if your computer is running Windows XP.
