The following steps describe how to configure the default TWAIN source on each workstation or Citrix server where the Scan Acquisition Server is used.

Note:

Before being used in production, all scanners and scan drivers should be tested to ensure that they can use the available scan format configuration files. Incompatible scanners and drivers cannot use the scanner settings specified in the scan format configuration files.

CAUTION:

Modify the registry at your own risk. Incorrectly editing the Windows registry can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Be sure to back up the registry before making any changes to it.

  1. Open the Registry Editor as described under Accessing the Registry.
  2. Within HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ACEpicScanControl\Twain , create a string value named Scanner.
    This value specifies the default scan source when Twain is the selected scan method.
  3. Set this value to Generic Scanner or Default Scanner if the Scan Acquisition Server should use the TWAIN device set as the default scanner on the user's workstation. This configuration is recommended for Citrix environments. If the default scanner is unavailable, the user is prompted to select a scan source.
    Tip:

    Use this setting in conjunction with the DisableTwainSource EpicIntegrations.config setting to prevent users from changing the scan source.
