Network ISIS
Network ISIS Overview
When a scanner is connected to a network, ISIS driver networking allows any
client computer on the network to operate the networked scanner in the same
manner as a local scanner.
After placing an original document to be scanned in the network scanner, an ISIS
application can be used on a client computer where the ISIS driver is installed.
The ISIS application running on the client computer uses the ISIS driver to send
scanning commands to the scanner over the network. The scanned data is sent
back to the client computer via the network. The client driver displays dialog
boxes exactly as if the scanner were connected locally.
