- Kurzweil 1000 is designed to work with scanners that meet the TWAIN standard for
image capture devices, which includes the vast majority of scanners available today.
If you buy a flatbed scanner that is marked with the TWAIN logo you should have no
trouble using that device with Kurzweil 1000. If you are looking to use Kurzweil 1000
with a high-speed scanning device the easiest way to determine 100% compatibility is
to order a Trial Edition of Kurzweil 1000 to test with your scanner. If you should
find a device that doesn't work, please contact Technical Support.
