Scanning Basics
There are two ways to scan; with an application that supports
TWAIN, or with the
Scan button and preassigned application
software.
If you...
❏ use an application that supports EPSON TWAIN to scan, open
your application.
❏ To scan in imagery easily, use the included EPSON SMART

button (see “Using the Scan Button” on page 8-9).

TWAIN may not be available depending on the application software.
