Introduction

The EPSON@ Scanning Utilities let you perform the following

functions with your EPSON scanner:

Calibrate your scanner to your monitor and your printer

Capture scanned images from within your application

Automatically locate, expose, and scan an image

Adjust individual settings and preview the effects before

you scan

Choose single- or triple-pass scanning

Save and reuse scanning settings that work well in your

environment

Take advantage of the multipage scanning feature available

with scanners that have an automatic document feeder

(ADF)

Take advantage of the text enhancement technology built

into some EPSON scanners.

The Scanning Utilities include two integrated programs:

EPSON Scan! II and EPSON TWAIN (for 16-bit scanning

with Microsoft@ Windows@ 3.1)

EPSON Scan! II32 and EPSON TWAIN32 (for 32-bit

scanning with Windows 95 or Windows NT).

Note:

This guide refers to the 32-bit programs as EPSON Scan! II and

EPSON TWAIN to reduce confusion.

Introduction 2

EPSON Scan! II calibrates your scanner with your monitor and

color printer to produce images whose colors match the

originals. It can also capture images and then save and export

these images in a variety of file formats.

EPSON TWAIN is the interface between most of your software

and your scanner. The interface has two screens: easy and

advanced. You can access either screen from within any

software that supports the TWAIN standard or from EPSON

Scan! II to take advantage of your scanner’s features.

Note:

The top line of the screen identifies whether you are using EPSON

Scan! II or EPSON TWAIN.
