  • Please use the control panel to manually adjust the white balance while TWAIN Driver is running

Selecting the Input Device

To use TWAIN Driver, the DZ-3600U must first be selected as the input device in the settings of the application. An item such as [TWAIN_32 Device] or [Select Source], should appear in the application's [File] menu or one of its submenus. Click on this item to display a window like the one below (the actual menu, window and button names will vary between applications).

Select the [DZ-3600U] option in this window and click the [Select] button. This completes selection of the DZ-3600U as the input device.

In most applications, the selection of the input device remains effective until another input device is selected.

An item such as [TWAIN_32], [Acquire], [Import] or [TWAIN Input] should appear in the application's [File] menu or one of its submenus. Click on this item to display a window like the one below.

In this window, the following buttons can be used to adjust the settings. Moreover, as with Presentation Software, the remote control and control panel can be used to control the TWAIN Driver.

Click the beside the [Viewing Document] item in the window to display the menu below. This setting allows you to select from two options to match the color settings to the type of image being captured.

Viewing Photograph: Select this option to reproduce human skin tones at their best.
