Hi Sam,
I'm still having a problem that Photoshop isn't able to access the Epson
Twain driver for my Epson Perfection 1200S. The Polaroid SS4000 doesn't use
the same twain interface, only it's proprietary software, which could
include Silverfast, Insight, or VueScan.
But I am able to scan with the Epson flatbed through VueScan (Thanks ED).
Does anyone know why I can't get Photoshop to use the Epson Twain with Win2K?
Larry

Here's a copy of the post that worked me through a similar problem to yours:
It appears that what you'll need is the NTASPI32 from.....
1. Install new drivers for the AdvanSys ABP-3922-00 SCSI card from
. Connect.com is the new
name for the AdvanSys site. This installed a driver called Fast Ultra Narrow
SCSI, which then showed up properly in Device Manager. Win 2K itself had a
driver for the AdvanSys card which loaded automatically on setup, but it was
out-dated.
2. Install new NTASPI32 with the installer from
. A trick here was that the
Adaptec installer did not work(gave a message that there was no Adaptec card
on my system). The Polaroid Support staff and some others advised me to use
the Adaptec site, but that would never work for me. Also, the AdvanSys CD
that originally came with my SS4000(December 1999) had outdated drivers.
In this AdvanSys site, there was a choice of a GUI installer or a simple
system where you just copy the NTASPI and WNASPI files to two different WIN
NT folders. I used the GUI and it was all automatic.
3. Now I had the right drivers and ASPI layer, but the scanner was still not
recognized. I had to physically remove the AdvanSys card and reboot with the
card out of the system(no longer showed up in the Device Manager). Then I
shut down, put the AdvanSys card back in, and started up again. Voila! Works
pefectly so far with the SS4000 using either Vuescan or PolaColor Insight.
