About ScanGear Toolbox CS
ScanGear Toolbox CS is a stand-alone utility program that provides a simple way to use a scanner to scan and send images to fax programs or copy them directly to printers without running a TWAIN-compliant program.
ScanGear Toolbox CS can also scan an image, automatically start a program and send the scanned image to that program with the click of a single button.
When you use a scanner with the start button in front of the scanner, the button launches ScanGear Toolbox CS on your computer, providing added convenience.
When you use a Film Adapter Unit, please refer to P.21 regarding its settings and usage.
