Advanced Scanning - Epson Prefection 2450 User Manual

Advanced Scanning

If you're experienced with scanning, you can scan from Adobe Photoshop Elements
(which comes with your scanner) or nearly any other graphics program. Once you've
opened your graphics program, you have to choose the scanner software you want to
scan with.
The standard software that comes with your scanner is EPSON TWAIN. If you've
installed LaserSoft Imaging SilverFast SE, you can use it instead of EPSON TWAIN.
SilverFast SE is a high-end scanning utility that delivers highest-quality professional
results. You can install SilverFast SE from the Scanner Software CD-ROM that came
with your scanner; for details, see page 28.
Once you've selected your scanner software, you can use it to start your scan and
import your image directly into your graphics program.
