Advanced Scanning
Though your EPSON Perfection 1200S scanner is pre-configured to easily capture
quality images with its bundled applications, you can also use the scanner with nearly
every high-end graphics application. In addition, you can adjust the way EPSON
TWAIN captures images, and change how the Start button operates. This chapter
gives you an overview of these advanced topics, and includes scanning and printing
tips for getting the best results.
Scanning with EPSON TWAIN
Scans are always performed from within a host application the application into
which you plan to import the scanned image or document, such as Presto!
PageManager, Adobe PhotoDeluxe, or nearly any other graphics program. You have
to start this application before you can access EPSON TWAIN, your scanner
software.
Once youve started your application, you need to select the scanner source you
want to scan with. Your EPSON Perfection 1200S scanner comes with the EPSON
TWAIN 4 driver. You need to select this driver as the source in your application.
This section contains step-by-step instructions for doing exactly this. Since Presto!
PageManager comes with your scanner, this section uses it as an example, but you can
perform the same steps with virtually any graphics program, such as Adobe
Photoshop
®
or CorelDRAW.
