Batch Scan Mode
The Batch Scan Mode might arguably be the most useful feature of
the Minolta TWAIN driver. With most application software, the TWAIN driver UI is launched
when an Import or Scan command is given. Typically the driver will then close after a scan is
completed. When the Batch Scan Mode selection box is checked it will cause the driver to
remain open and will place a Done button in the File Transfer Status Window.
While the File Transfer Status Window is displayed you can continue to initiate scans and
make setting changes from the front panel of the MS 6000. Each scan will be delivered to the
application and stored in the computer’s available memory. While performing a batch scan,
you may not be able to view completed scanned images – this is normal. When the Done
button is pressed, the Status Window and Driver UI will close and all image data will be
displayed in the scanning application.
Note
: Images scanned via the Batch Scanning Mode are not permanently stored but rather kept
in temporary memory by the application software. Therefore the number of scans that can be
stored will be dependent on image file sizes, the application itself as well as available system
memory.
