search for API scanner & about twain

[chehreghany]

hi all. 1.is there any way other than using "twain.class" for programming on scanner? 2.is there any API for the developers so that they can program on canon scanner product?

1 - only if the scanner exposes another method, such as through WIA. TWAIN is the standard tho 2 - No. The point of TWAIN is that it's a common interface, there's nothing specific to Canon. TWAIN dlls can be bought, but I think there's a free one on this site.

I Made my scanner part with help of WIA. WIA has its problems tho.I found it very easy to crasch tha WIA when scanning, so if i had another option i would use that.
