Setting Up the Start Button

Making Windows Me, 98, and 2000 Settings

This section explains how to make settings that control which application opens when you press the scanner's  Start button. You can specify one application to open automatically when you press the  Start button, or you can have a window open allowing you to choose from a list of applications. Follow the steps below to make these settings.

Note:

These settings do not apply to Windows 98 or NT 4.0, or to Macintosh computers.

Click Start, point to Settings, and select Control Panel.

Double-click the Scanners and Cameras icon. The Scanners and Cameras Properties dialog box appears.

Select your scanner from the list of installed scanners and cameras, click the Properties button, then click the Events tab.

In the Scanner events list, make sure Start Button is selected.

To have an application open automatically when you press the  Start button, select the check box next to that application in the Send to this application window, and clear the check boxes of all the other applications.

To have your document scanned and sent to an application with one press of the  Start button, select Presto! PageManager for EPSON, then after completing the steps in this section see Making PageManager Settings.

If you want to choose from a list of applications when you press the  Start button, select the check boxes of the applications you want.

Note:

Depending on the application, EPSON TWAIN Pro may also open when you press the  Start button.

Some applications do not support linkage to scanners and digital cameras. Linkage is available only with the applications that appear in the Send to this application list.

To save your settings, click OK, then click OK again.

If you did not select Presto! PageManager for EPSON, or if you selected multiple applications, close all applications and try pressing the  Start button on the scanner to confirm that everything is set up correctly.

If you selected Presto! PageManager for EPSON only, see Making PageManager Settings to make settings for scanning and sending the scanned document to a specified application.
