Network Scanning

You can use EPSON Scan Server and EPSON TWAIN HS Network, two
applications on your EPSON GT-30000 Scanner Software CD-ROM, to share your
scanner with other users in a small workgroup.

Your network must have a scanner server (the Windows computer connected to the
scanner) and one or more client computers. Only one client computer at a time can
connect to the scanner server and access the scanner. However, you can have more
than one scanner and scanner server on a network, so clients can choose which
scanner to use.

Here are some other requirements for sharing a scanner:

The scanner server must be an IBM

®

Pentium

®

compatible PC running Windows

Me, Windows 2000, Windows 98, Windows 95, or Windows NT 4.0 with
Service Pack 3 or higher.

Client computers can be running Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows 98,
Windows 95, or Windows NT 4.0.

Both the client computers and the scanner server must have a network interface
card installed, and must be running the TCP/IP protocol (see Appendix A for
instructions on installing the TCP/IP protocol).

EPSON Scan Server must be installed on the scanner server, and EPSON
TWAIN HS Network must be installed on client computers.

It is recommended the scan server have a static IP address.
