Advanced Scanning with EPSON
TWAIN
Your scanner's EPSON TWAIN driver includes detailed settings that you can make
to refine your scans. This chapter describes how to use advanced scan settings.

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 Adobe
PhotoDeluxe, or nearly any other graphics program. You have to start this application
before you can access EPSON TWAIN, your scanner software.
Once you've started your application, you need to select the scanner "source" you
want to scan with. Your EPSON Perfection 1640SU scanner comes with the EPSON
TWAIN 5 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 Adobe
PhotoDeluxe comes with your scanner, this section uses it as an example, but you can
perform the same steps with most graphics programs, such as Adobe Photoshop or
CorelDRAW. The electronic Reference Guide on your CD-ROM has detailed
instructions on how to use the EPSON TWAIN driver (see page 22). For instructions
on using a creative software application, see its electronic manual or online help.
