"The driver did not work, it installs Scanwise 2.00 perfectly, but when trying to use Scanwise, the computer does show the introduction page of Scanwise, but does not recognise the scanner and gives a message:"Please turn on your scanner".

I us the dutch version of snapscan

Thus the driver is at the moment useless for me.

Do you have a solution?

First what you do in this case is install the software then connect your scanner. Win Xp will find the new hardware and will ask you to install the drivers press next, win Xp automat

"I downloaded this driver for a snapscan 1212U running Windows 2000 Pro. This utility works better than the original USB driver and tools that came with the scanner! It installed easily, and once I rebooted, the utility came right up, and I was able to scan within minutes. One really nice feature is that the scan plugs the image right into different documents."

"Works great, with a little bit of playing around. I've installed the driver, then I went to device menager > SNAPSCAN 1212U > update driver. I had to unzip (with WinRar) the downloaded program file to know where the driver is (its the agfascan.ini file)I had to install manually with the have disk option because all the other options didn't work. But now everythings fine.

I had to go to Device manager and select this driver. Unplugged the scanner and usb, restarted computer, plugged in scanner and usb, reinstalled software and it all worked fine. I can use the Scanwise program in MS Picture it.
