How to list all available scanners seen by my computer

If you are posting here I am assuming you are looking at developing your own application in .NET C#. If you’re looking to see what Twain Scanners are available for your application, I would recommend looking at the LEADTOOLS SDK TwainSession.SelectSource(). This would display the TWAIN dialog box to be used to select a TWAIN source for acquiring images. As a disclaimer this is a paid for SDK and I work for this vender.

Here is a link to a short tutorial to build a fully functional application to select one of the available TWAIN devices and acquire an image from this device.
