#Twain sane bridge windows driver#
Those are basically generic SANE libraries and TWAIN interface and together, they work as a driver for EVERY TWAIN compatible scanners. In the link above you WILL find a version for El Capitan. There is also a specific El Capitan version, and given the feedback it works better than the version for Yosemite, which requires all the libraries, the TWAIN interface in the link above, AND the Twainbridge.app OR TwainBridge Maverick Fix (for Yosemite). Installed all the lbraries compiled for Yosemite. If this has somehow been of help, it would be great if you leave a comment :) In the case of the MP800, this is the latest version of the scanner driver (for OS X Lion), located on the Canon support pages. In addition to this package, installation of the actual TWAIN scanner driver is needed. To be able to easily fix this problem in the future I created an installer package that installs TWAINBridge.app in the proper location. TWAINBridge.app is located in /System/Library/Image Capture/Devices/.
Lucky as we are, we can use the TWAINBridge from Mountain Lion in Mavericks, and continue to use our old TWAIN scanner drivers. Unfortunately, this meant that my scanner, a Canon Pixma MP800 multifunctional, which comes with a TWAIN driver, would not be usable for me on my updated systems.Īfter messing around a lot, I figured that TWAIN support in the previous OS X versions was done through an “application” called TWAINBridge.
In this version OS X removes the support for TWAIN scanner drivers. So I updated my computers to OS X Maverick.
