RemoteScan™ RemoteScan™ is a software solution that turns any TWAIN scanner, right out of the box, into a network scanner. With RemoteScan™ ordinary or high-end scanners can now be shared with other PCs or Thin Clients across your entire network. One scanner can now meet the needs of an entire office. RemoteScan™ for Windows Terminal® Services / Citrix® Installed on an Application Server, RemoteScan™ allows users at workstations (PCs or Thin Clients) to scan directly into software which is running on the server. RemoteScan™ is an easy to install, easy to use solution that does not require sharing of folders or directories, and does not compromise network security. Works with any TWAIN scanner and any application software, installs in minutes and does not appreciably load network traffic. RemoteScan is a trademark of RemoteScan Corporation.

RemoteScan allows a single scanner to be shared with other users over a network (IP, LAN, WAN), much in the same way as it is common to share printers. In addition with RemoteScan, scanners connected directly to client workstations can be accessed by any application software which is running on Windows Terminal Services or Citrix servers. This is done without any redirection or technical complexity; with RemoteScan Terminal Services / Citrix® users can easily scan directly from their workstations without compromising network security in anyway and without having to establish shared folders or directories. RemoteScan installs on any PC running Windows (from Windows 98). RemoteScan also installs on Thin Client appliances that are running XPe. RemoteScan, in any license configuration, has a very small foot print (less than1 meg), and is provided as a self-installing download from the www.remote-scan.com web site. Support is provided directly by RemoteScan Corporation through an online support forum, email, and by phone during standard business hours. Installing and using To use, a copy of RemoteScan is installed on each computer or Thin Client appliance which has a scanner directly attached. This allows the scanner to become a "shared scanner." RemoteScan is then installed on the Windows Terminal Services / Citrix Server, and any other computer or Thin Client appliance where a user needs to access the shared scanner. For RemoteScan to function properly, it is necessary to first connect a TWAIN compatible scanner to a PC or Thin Client appliance, and install the scanner driver provided by the scanner manufacturer. RemoteScan will then access the manufacturer's driver and will become the user interface for the installed scanner. Features Any number and combination of scanners can be shared on a network with RemoteScan. In a Windows Terminal Services / Citrix environment this is especially advantageous since all application software on the application server will "see" and then list individual scanners which are in fact located at remote locations as if they were locally attached directly to the application server. This means that individual end users can purchase and install a variety of scanners from different manufacturers on each of their own workstations which then can be accessed by application software running on the Terminal Services / Citrix server.

RemoteScan uses highly efficient, lossless compression for transmitting data, and does not appreciably slow down overall network traffic. Since RemoteScan becomes the "front end" for the scanners which it accesses, RemoteScan provides user configurable templates for pre-setting common scanner configuration options, such as DPI and color settings. These templates are useful for large enterprises where administrators need to have users scan at a consistent DPI/color settings. RemoteScan uses native RDP and ICA protocols, which means that a scanner attached to a workstation can be accessed by the Terminal Services or Citrix application software without changing firewall configurations and without compromising network security. With RemoteScan you can also setup shared scanning areas where one scanner is shared by any number of Terminal Server or Citrix clients. Licensing Licensing of the RemoteScan Terminal Services / Citrix product A single license of RemoteScan Terminal Services / Citrix allows the installation of one copy of RemoteScan on a single Terminal Services / Citrix application server, as well as installation on up to a specified number of end-user computers which will be accessing the application server computer. RemoteScan Terminal Services / Citrix licenses can be purchased in user increments of 10. Part numbers for these licenses are REMOTESCAN-TS## where "##" is the required number of end users / client machines where RemoteScan will be installed. Licensing of the RemoteScan product for NON Terminal Services networks A single license of RemoteScan allows the installation of one copy of RemoteScan on a single computer where a scanner is physically attached, as well as installation on up to a specified number of end-user computers which will be sharing that scanner. RemoteScan licenses can be purchased in user increments of 10. Part numbers for these licenses are REMOTESCAN-RS## where "##" is the required number of end users / client machines where RemoteScan will be installed.
