System Requirements
System requirements are largely dependent on the ”workÓ
performed. By work, we are referring to the task or operation
performed using the scanner in conjunction with application
software.
Because scanners are capable of inputting large amounts of data in
relatively short periods of time, they commonly push computer
systems to the limits of their capabilities. Before beginning any
scanning task or operation, carefully consider your system
processing capabilities, especially processor speed, RAM, and
available hard disk space. OCR processes, fax operations, and the
processing of simple black & white graphics are least demanding.
High resolution scanning of large images in full color creates an
extreme demand for processor time and memory.
When you are scanning with the TWAIN interface, the number
labeled image size (calculated in bytes) provides the working file
size that is the result of the selected scanning mode, resolution,
and image size. Take careful note of this information.
Minimum and recommended system requirements are:
* IBM compatible PC 386/486, Pentium or later;
* Microsoft Windows 3.1,Windows 95, Windows NT;
* One printer port available (enhanced parallel port
recommended);
* 20 Megabytes of available hard disk space for installation;
* 8 Megabytes of RAM (16 Megabytes or higher
recommended);
* A video graphics array (VGA) monitor;
