RemoteScan™ Client

See separate instructions for RemoteScan Server Software.

Installation
RemoteScan™ is provided as self extracting, self installing file (RemoteScan.exe). RemoteScan.exe
contains both the Server and the Client software for RemoteScan. Depending on the terms of your
license with RemoteScan Corporation, you can install RemoteScan Server onto computers which
have scanners attached, and you can install RemoteScan Client onto other computers on the network
which need to access the scanners.

NOTE: Do not break the terms of your license with RemoteScan Corporation. Please
Do NOT install more copies of the Client software than you are licensed for, and do not
install the Server Software on more than one computer unless your license with RemoteScan
Corporation specifically grants you permission. RemoteScan licenses its software at
different prices for personal home use than it does for business use. Please do not use a
personal use license at a business location.

After you have saved the distribution file, RemoteScan.exe, it to your hard drive, open it and run it.
You do this either from the download dialog box, or from your file explorer. Then follow the on
screen prompts.

During the installation process you will be prompted to select to install as a Server or as a Client.
Install the "Client" software. Do this by leaving the box marked 'Client' and do not check the box
marked 'Server.'

Depending on the version of Windows you are using, during installation you may be prompted to
allow RemoteScan™ access through your firewall. You should grant this access, as without it other
may not be able to use their client copies of RemoteScan™ to operate your scanner. There is no
known security risk in granting this access.

Once you have installed a copy of RemoteScan™ Client you will be able to access the scanner
connected to the computer where RemoteScan™ Server is installed. (If you are testing RemoteScan
with the Free client software, you will only be able to access the scanner located at our offices).

After installing Client copies, users can then access your scanner from within your graphic
applications such as Photoshop® or any other application, such as MS Word®, which can import
directly from TWAIN compatible devices.

Using RemoteScan

After RemoteScan Client is installed, from within all applications that can access TWAIN devices,
there will be a menu choice for RemoteScan. When selected, the RemoteScan Client Settings and
Control Dialog will be displayed.

From this dialog (opened from within any of your application software, from the "import" or
"Acquire" or "Insert" menu choices) you can now operate the remote scanner as if it were directly
connected to your computer.

The color and resolution of can be set to whatever the scanner is capable of, and you can also
Preview and select specific areas of the previewed image to scan.

If your scanner has advanced features, such as sheet feeders or duplex scanning, you will be able to
set those options as well.

The entire dialog box can also be resized, either increased or decreased, for better viewing of your
preview area. To resize the dialog box, drag on its lower right corner.

Adding and Editing Scanner List in RemoteScan Client.

The Client Dialog box should display in the upper right corner your "Scan Server" computer and the
scanner which is attached to it. If it does not, you can manually ad additional scanners by clicking
on the "Add" button of Client Dialog Box (opened from within any of your application software,
from the "import" or "Acquire" or "Insert" menu choices).

RemoteScan Client requires either the Network name or IP# of the computer where RemoteScan
Server is installed.

In addition, RemoteScan communicates between the server and the client through "Ports." Leave
these at the default, or, if these need to be changed, contact your network administrator.

Operating a scanner from a remote computer over the Internet

To connect to scan from a RemoteScan™ Server that is not located on your immediate network,
you can 'Add' it to your Scan Server list by clicking on the 'Add' button that is beneath the 'Scan
Server' list, and then entering the IP# where of the computer where the RemoteScan Server is
running. Note: this requires that the remote computer have a static IP#.

RemoteScan for Windows Terminal Services

RemoteScan works well with Windows Terminal Services. With RemoteScan, Windows Terminal
Services users can access any scanner on the network, as well as accessing scanners connected to
their own "client" computers.

To use RemoteScan with Windows Terminal Services, you need to install RemoteScan Server on
each computer which has an attached scanner. You will also need to have your network
administrator install a copy of RemoteScan Client for each user on the computer(s) where
application software is being run.

Again - because it is confusing:

1. Install RemoteScan Server software on the client work stations.

2. Install RemoteScan Client software on the Windows Terminal Server.

When the RemoteScan Client and the RemoteScan Server software is installed, application software
(such as MS Word, PhotoShop, etc.), which is running on a Windows Terminal Server, will display
remote scanners as if they were attached locally to the Windows Terminal Server computer, even if
the "remote" scanners are attached directly to a user's workstation.

NOTE: Do not break the terms of your license with RemoteScan Corporation. Please Do NOT
install more copies of the Client software than you are licensed for, and do not install the Server
Software on more than one computer unless your license with RemoteScan Corporation specifically
grants you permission. RemoteScan licenses its software at different prices for personal home use
than it does for business use. Please do not use a personal use license at a business location.
