    driver. Start the application program first, then start ScanGear CS-U from within the program.
    The images scanned while both programs are running will be directly loaded into the
    application program (the application program must comply with the TWAIN_32 standard).
    Start TWAIN driver from within
    an application program.ScanGear CS-U works as a TWAIN driver on top of
    the application programÕs window.
