Printer driver Software that sends printing instructions to a printer. The printer driver keeps track of the attributes of a printer and the codes a program must send to access those attributes. T TWAIN Both a protocol and an application programmer's interface (API) that allows you to input image data directly from any source (for example: desktop and handheld scanners, video capture boards, digital cameras, and other imaging equipment) without requiring you to switch out of the application. It provides compatibility between image input devices and applications by acting as the liaison between hardware devices and software applications. Because your MultiPASS supports TWAIN, you can use the scanning features of the MultiPASS with any Windows application that supports TWAIN. Twain, the industry standard, was developed by the TWAIN working group which consists of representatives from many leaders in the scanner hardware and software industry. Glossary G-4
