This scanner interfaces with your Mac software through a Plug-in driver. You can use this
scanner with any program that is Plug-in Module (PIM) compatible.
To install the Plug-in driver:
1 . Insert the Plug-in disk into the floppy drive.
2. Double-click the disk icon if it is not already open.
3. Double-click the English folder to open its contents.
4. Locate the plug-ins folder for the application (i.e. PhotoDeluxe)
you will be using to scan. Drag the plug-in module from the English folder on the disk to the
application’s plug-ins folder.
That application can now be opened and used with the scanner. The scanner plug-in should
display on the Acquire list in the File menu.
The ImageReader FB can also simulate an Apple scanner. This “Works Like Apple” driver is to
be used with OCR programs, like OmniPage and TypeReader, that do not support PIM. Simply
drag the “Works Like Apple” driver into your system folder and restart. When you are ready to
use the OCR program, configure it for Apple Scanner or AppleOne Scanner. You can now use
the scanner for OCR processes.
