SCANNING FROM THE PAPERPORT SOFTWARE

Instead of using a scanner button, you can scan directly from the PaperPort software. This is particularly helpful when you’re using PaperPort to file and save your scanned items.

Note: You can also scan directly with other software that meets the Twain standards for scanning, which includes many graphics and imaging applications available for your computer. The following steps explain how to set up and scan from the PaperPort software but you use the same basic processes with other Twain software.

To scan from PaperPort, you must first do a one-time-only set up of the software.

To set up the PaperPort software with the scanner:

1.If the PaperPort software isn’t currently running, double-click the PaperPort icon on the Windows desktop to start it. The PaperPort Desktop appears.

2.From the PaperPort File menu, choose Select Source. The Select Source dialog box appears, and shows your Visioneer OneTouch scanner (as well as all other Twain devices installed on your computer).

3.Choose the Visioneer OneTouch scanner option, and then click Select.

Note: You don’t need to set up the scanner again unless you change the source to some other Twain device, such as a digital camera.
