Accessing EPSON Scan
Your product is controlled by your computer via a TWAIN-compliant driver called EPSON Scan.
EPSON Scan directly controls all of the features of your Epson product. With this software you can scan images in color, grayscale, or black and white and obtain professional quality results. This program is the standard cross-platform interface between your product and most applications. You can access it from any application that supports the TWAIN standard.
Note for Mac OS X users: |

TWAIN is a standard for the application program interface (API) between image input devices (such as scanners) and applications controlling the image input devices.
Using a TWAIN-compliant application and a TWAIN-compliant scanner with a TWAIN-compliant driver enables users to operate any scanner in the same manner.
This product is a TWAIN-compliant device. You can scan images using a TWAIN-compliant image processing application.
The following TWAIN-compliant image processing applications are included in your product's package. Use the one appropriate for your purpose.
You can also scan images using common TWAIN-compliant applications such as Adobe Photoshop.
While in a TWAIN-compliant application, when you select a scan command to scan an image, EPSON Scan starts and scans the image with the specified settings.
