Scan Method of the ScanSource Object

This method performs scanning of one or more images. It returns a collection of the names of the resulting image files.

One of the input parameters of this method receives a pointer to the IScanCallback scanning management interface.

This method does not return until scanning is completed. If you want to scan asynchronously, i.e., without blocking the execution of your program, use the BeginScan method of the same object.

Syntax

HRESULT Scan(
  ScanSourceUITypeEnum UserInterfaceType,

Parameters

UserInterfaceType
