The Setup Twain Devices window associates a twain device to a device button when setting up a device for use in OP. To set up a device in OP, you must first activate the device from within the Document Management module.

NoteOP recommends scanning documents in black and white at a maximum resolution of 200 dpi. In instances where color is important, you can save time and avoid computer slow-down by scanning the documents into your computer as .JPEG files, then importing them into OP through Document Management. An imported file can be labeled and saved in your OP database, and attached to a patient record like any scanned document.
