Charlie, Yes please feel free to get in touch with JSE and discuss the details of your requirements.
I would like to advice you that, you should be integrate API from open source twain code or you should watch a video tutorial first.
MarkWhy is there no generic Windows eSCL/Airscan twain driver? Twain is getting left in the dust if it cant keep up
The TWAIN Working Group is a consortium of companies maintaining standards that promote easy and robust communication between applications and scanners. The TWAIN Working Group does not write scanner drivers, that work is left to the scanner vendors or the open source community. Our limited (and volunteer) resources are devoted to work on TWAIN and TWAIN Direct. We welcome efforts that add to the open source repository, and will gladly promote any open source project that provides TWAIN or TWAIN Direct support on top of Windows eSCL or Airscan. Thanks so much.
MarkThat answer is really some of the most hot air I have heard in a while.
Many manufacturers are moving to the eSCL standard. The eSCL standard goes beyond manufacturers and is n fact a published and available specification (https://mopria.org/mopria-escl-specification) . Having eSCL on Windows would relieve many manufacturers from proprietary drivers completely, or at least give some manufacturers or users an alternative.
Why would Twain NOT want an eSCL Twain source driver?
