14 Installation and setup

Setting up your scanner with OmniPage Pro

All files needed for scanner setup and support are copied automatically
during the program's installation. Before using OmniPage Pro 12 for
scanning, your scanner should be installed with its own scanner driver
software and tested for correct functionality. Scanner driver software is
not included with OmniPage Pro.
Scanner installation and setup are done through the Scanner Wizard. You
can start this yourself, as described below. Otherwise, the Scanner Wizard
appears when you first attempt to perform scanning.
Please follow these steps to use the Scanner Wizard to setup your scanner
with OmniPage Pro 12:
Choose Start  Programs  ScanSoft OmniPage Pro 12.0 
X
Scanner Wizard
or click the Setup button in the Scanner panel of the Options
dialog box.
or choose a scan setting in the Get Page drop-down list in the
OmniPage Toolbox and click the Get Page button.
The Scanner Setup Wizard starts. The first panel appears only on
first setup when called from inside OmniPage Pro.

Choose 'Select scanner or digital camera', then click Next. You
see a list of all detected TWAIN scanner drivers, with the system
default scanner selected.

Click once to select the driver of the scanner you want to use.
Click 'Other drivers...' if you need to browse for a driver. Select
'Configure Advanced Settings' for an extra panel if you want your
scanner's own interface to be hidden during scanning or to
modify the image transfer method. Click on Next.
X
Choose Yes to test your scanner configuration, then click Next.
The wizard will now test the connection from the computer to
your scanner. When completed, click on Next.
