A dialog box opens for you to select the application to use for scanning. Select the application you 
want in the box and click 

OK

.

Now the application you selected opens and you can continue scanning using that application’s 
interface. 

Technical Note

If the scanner scans and sends an image to an application 

without

 prompting you to choose an application 

to run, the control panel options for your scanner’s events are automatically set to run a specific program 
when an event is initiated. Follow these steps to change the events setting for your scanner.
1.

Open the Windows Control Panel.

2.

Open the Scanners and Cameras group.
When the Control Panel is in Classic View, the Scanners and Cameras group will be in the list.
When the Control Panel is in Category View (Windows XP), or Home View (Windows Vista and 7), 
the Scanners and Cameras group will be located under either of the following main groups:

Windows XP

—Printers and Other Hardware

Windows Vista and 7

—Hardware and Sound

3.

Open the scanner properties window.

Windows XP

—Click on the scanner icon and then click on the 

View device properties

 link on 

the left side of the window.

Windows Vista and 7

—Click on the scanner icon and then click on the 

Properties

 button.

4.

Click on the 

Events

 tab.

5.

Select the option 

Prompt for which program to run

 to be prompted when scanning to Still Image 

Client. Alternatively, select 

Start this program

 then choose an application from the list to have that 

application start each time you scan to Still Image Client. 

6.

Click on 

OK

 when you are done making changes to this window.

7.

Now when you scan with Event Forwarding you will either be prompted to choose an application, or 
the default application you selected will open.
