[G4] Epson Scanners

[Roger Harris]

With PS 7 put the plugin in the plugin folder. If you are running OSX 
10.2 or above this will work as a Twain. You will need to select the 
Twain in File/Import.

On your Dad's you install the Epson software and it is in the 
Applications Folder ready to be used. It is the same software that is 
accessed through PHotoshop Twain.
