Acquire the Scanner TWAIN
Driver
The TWAIN driver is the scanning module provided
with your scanner. It is easily accessed from within the
bundled scanner software or from within any TWAIN-
compliant program. Before you start with the steps
below, be sure you have installed and configured the
bundled scanner software. Refer to Chapter 1 for
details.
1. Launch Windows.
2. Run the host TWAIN-compliant software (e.g.
Photoshop)
3. Call up the TWAIN Data Source by selecting
Acquire from the File menu. (In some programs,
the Acquire command will appear in a submenu
under the Import command.) The TWAIN dialog
box will appear.
The TWAIN dialog box contains control settings,
which you must set prior to scanning a document. The
basic steps to scan a document are:
1. Prescan the document.
2. Set the desired image area to be scanned.
3. Select the desired scan mode.
4. Select the scan source.
5. Select the desired resolution.
6. Select the destination.
