Instead of using a scanner button, you can scan directly from the 
PaperPort software. This is particularly helpful when you’re using 
PaperPort to file and save your scanned items. 

To scan from PaperPort, you must first do a one-time-only set up of the 
software.

1. If the PaperPort software isn’t currently running, double-click the 

PaperPort icon on the Windows desktop to start it. The PaperPort 
Desktop appears. 

2. From the PaperPort File menu, choose Select Source. The Select 

Source dialog box appears, and shows your Visioneer Scan Manager 
Pro software (as well as all other Twain devices installed on your 
computer).

3. Choose the Visioneer Scan Manager Pro option, and then click 

Select.

Note: You can also scan directly with other software that meets the 
Twain standards for scanning, which includes many graphics and 
imaging applications available for your computer. The following steps 
explain how to set up and scan from the PaperPort software but you 
use the same basic processes with other Twain software.

Note: You don’t need to set up the scanner again unless you change 
the source to some other Twain device, such as a digital camera.
