Scanning by Pressing the Start button
You can open EPSON TWAIN Pro, start scanning, and have the
scanned image sent to a certain application, simply by pressing
the
=
Start button on your scanner. To use this feature, you need
to install PageManager for EPSON, or other Start button
compatible software. When you press the
=
Start button, the
following occurs:
❏ Windows 2000 and 98 or EPSON Scanner Monitor software
on an operating system other than Windows 2000 and 98,
detects when the
=
Start button is pressed and sends
information to the Start button-compatible application, such
as PageManager for EPSON.
❏ The Start button compatible application will automatically
open EPSON TWAIN Pro, scan the image and process it in
the way the application is designed.
Note:
❏ You need to set up the Start button-compatible software before using
this feature. See Chapter 5, “Using the Start Button,”and the
documentation that comes with the application.
❏ The scanned image will be handled by the software to its maximum
capability. For example, using PageManager for EPSON, you can
send the scanned image to a printer to print, or convert your scanned
OCR image to text format and paste it in a word processing
application—all by simply pressing the
=
Start button.
❏ If the scanner is connected to a PC which is running EPSON Scan
Server, the Start Button feature mentioned above is disabled. For
information on using the Start button on a network, refer to the
EPSON Scan Server & EPSON TWAIN Pro Network User’s
Guide.
