TWAIN after the scanner’s name

[TOR]

Hi all,

I’ve wrote an application to communicate with a twain scanner and just wanted to know why “TWAIN” is specified after the scanner’s name
when I get the scanner’s name?

Thanks.

Are you refering to DAT_IDENTITY.ProductName?

Here the vendor is free to enter “ABC Scanner” or “ABC Scanner TWAIN”.
TWAIN is not mandatory.

Is that answering your question?

Yes I do mean the product name.

For some reason I thought the DSM added it to it??

Just I have created an application here and is working fine with two different scanners.
On site it doesn’t work with the Canon DR-M160 scanner.

The two that it does work with didn’t have TWAIN in the name.

Thanks
