The bundled software that comes with my scanner allows the scanner to (do some advanced functionality), but DTWAIN cannot seem to duplicate what the bundled software can do. What can be the problem?

Many times, the software that comes with the scanner is either not based on TWAIN, or it was written specifically for the scanner that it is bundled with. In other words, the software doesn’t follow the TWAIN protocol fully, and third-party libraries and applications find it very difficult, if not impossible, to get the scanner to work correctly due to the TWAIN driver not adhering to the TWAIN standard.
