Selecting Your Scanner
Your scanner and the driver supplied by its manufacturer, if any, must be
installed on your system according to the manufacturer's instructions.

system by using the scanning software supplied by the manufacturer.
During installation, Chooser extension(s) must be installed for the
scanner(s) you plan to use with Direct. For information on Chooser
