This section tells you how to scan documents into AcuityLogic POS, and also
recommends scanning settings to help you increase the speed of the scanning
process and optimize the use of your document storage space. However, the
recommended scanning settings are optional, and may need to be modified for
your specific scanner and system configuration.
NOTES • Make sure you have the latest TWAIN driver for your scanner
installed on your computer. If you need to install or update the
TWAIN driver, go to the scanner manufacturer’s Web site.
• Eyefinity does not recommend a specific scanner brand or model;
you can use any scanner that can create an electronic document.
However, we do not recommend using a scanner with AcuityLogic
running on an Apple Safari browser on a Windows PC, as you may
experience logout issues.
• Eyefinity does not support your hardware and highly suggests
consulting your hardware technician before purchasing a scanner
to use with your computer. For installation, support, and
troubleshooting issues related to your scanner, contact the
scanner’s manufacturer.
• You can scan up to ten sides of a page at a time (five
front-and-back pages).
