Configure Device Profiles

In the Device Profiles Setup dialog box, you can create device profiles that can be imported or exported by other users. To import or export device profiles, see Import/Export Device Profiles.

  • For scanners, driver settings can be configured and named for quick recall during capture operations.

  • For the import device, folder paths can be specified for quick access to image directories.

The profile settings are independent on each capture profile, device, and scan station.
