The TWAIN driver is used for “Pull Scanning”, i.e. initiating a scan from your computer via
software. Compare this to “Push Scanning” where you start the scan by pressing a button
on the MFP's front panel. The TWAIN driver only works via USB connections. This means
it's not possible to control the scanner over the network from your computer.
There are two different ways of installing the TWAIN and printer drivers:
1.
Plugging the printer in first and performing a “Plug and play” type of installation. In
this case you must install the TWAIN driver first.
2.
Not plugging the printer in yet, but running the Oki driver installer program from the
DVD-ROM. This installs the TWAIN (scanner driver) and printer drivers. Once the
printer is switched on and plugged in, Windows completes the installation
automatically.
NOTE
You must be logged on as an administrator or a member of the Administrators
group in order to complete this procedure. If your computer is connected to a

procedure.

The Oki driver installer program is the recommended installation method.
