Introduction

Features

EPSON Scan Server and EPSON TWAIN Pro Network software

work togetherto directly control all ofthe features of your EPSON

scanner in a networked environment. Through the use of these

software packages, you can share one or more scanners among

the users in a network and allow scanned images to be imported

into any TWAIN-compliant application.

EPSON Scan Server software is installed on a PC running on

Windows which is connected to an EPSON scanner (hereafter, the

PC is called the scanner server PC), and makes the EPSON scanner

shareable in the network. The scanner can be accessed from all

client PCs which have EPSON TWAIN Pro Network software

installed.

EPSON TWAIN Pro Network software controls the functions of

your scanner just like EPSON TWAIN Pro software and can be

used in a networked environment. On the other hand, EPSON

TWAIN Pro software is designed to be used only in a stand-alone

configuration in which only one PC is connected to an EPSON

scanner.

2 Introduction

The illustration below shows a sample network configuration in

which networked scanning is available. One of the clients can be

connected to the scanner server PC and import a scanned image

from the scanner. After disconnecting, another client can access

the scanner server PC.

If there are multiple EPSON scanners and scanner server PCs in

the network, you can select which scanner to be used in the

EPSON TWAIN Pro Network setup dialog box on the client. To

share an EPSON scanner by clients in the network, only one

EPSON scanner can be connected to one scanner server PC.
