Host apparatus and control method thereof, and image reading apparatus controlled by host apparatus
摘要
A method for controlling the host apparatus includes searching for at least one image reading apparatus being connected to the host apparatus; displaying a list of image reading apparatuses using the first information of the searched at least one image reading apparatus; selecting one of the at least image reading apparatus from the displayed list of image reading apparatuses; displaying a user interface (UI) for selecting a scanning option which includes the second information of the selected image reading apparatus using the second information corresponding to the selected image reading apparatus; and controlling the selected image reading apparatus to perform a scanning operation according to the scanning option which is input through the Ul for selecting a scanning option. Accordingly, a plurality of image reading apparatuses are controlled by a single universal driver without the need of installing driver programs for each of the image reading apparatuses.
