Hi,

<EM>&gt; Logitech was (and as far as I know, still is) part of the original
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; TWAIN consortium. Several persons have said to me that it may be
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; possible that there is a TWAIN driver that can be used as a driver
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; for the Logitech Pagescan Color scanner. Is this the case?
</EM><BR>
<P>This is a question for the TWAIN group. But as TWAIN is a standard for
<BR>
the interface between an image manipulating program and a scan
<BR>
application this won't help you. You need to know how the scanner
<BR>
works. So you either need the source code for the existing drivers or
<BR>
some hardware level documentation.
<BR>
<P><EM>&gt; If not,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; then is it possible that the specifications for designing a new
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; driver for the scanner for Windows 2000 might be acquired through the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; TWAIN Working Group?
</EM><BR>
<P>Ask them but I don't think they know about the interna of the scanners.
<BR>
<P><EM>&gt; Please not that Logitech
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; has already told me that they no longer support the device and Storm
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Technologies is now defunct.
</EM><BR>
<P>Maybe you can find former employees of Storm who can you tell more
<BR>
details?
<BR>
<P>The other way is to program a new driver from scratch by looking at
<BR>
the data stream going from the computer to the scanner and back. As
<BR>
you can imageine that will be a lot of work.
<BR>
<P>Bye,
