Is there a way to determine if a scanner is TWAIN compliant, such as a data base to check? There seems to be some inconstencies on the part of manufactorers as whether they display (or not) if a scanner or all in one is TWAIN compliant.
I looked online, and in the manual for my all in one and could find the answer. I had to call HP, and it took them a while to figure out that it was TWAIN comliant.
Thanks for your help
InspectorTWAIN is one such product that test a scanner.

InspectorTWAIN has some bugs that have gone unfixed for a long time. The last time I checked, it seemed Atalasoft was no longer developing it. They suggested that the TWG was taking over developement of InspectorTWAIN but I haven’t seen any sign of that. Does anyone have a status update?

Twister by Dosadi is an excellent tool for application developers to evaluate the capabilities of various DS’s. As a DS developer, I always test my DS under it whenever I make changes to the code.

Both InspectorTWAIN and Twister only test TWAIN 1.9 compliance. I’m not aware of anything for TWAIN v2.x.

–To have a quick test of TWAIN compatability online, you can try with this demo app in your browser. It’s developed using Dynamic Web TWAIN which is a web-based TWAIN SDK.
