Ensure that the Image Scan control’s Image property is set correctly.
Settings 1, 2, 3, and 4 you cannot write a file directly to an optical disk. You must write to a magnetic drive first, and then copy the file to the optical drive.
Settings 1, 2, and 5 require a file name.
Settings 3 or 4 require that the Image property points to a file template. Image files are then generated and incremented as you scan to them. For example, if you use a template named ‘img’, you must specify a path, such as c:\scan\images\img. The template ‘img’ will generate files named img00001.xxx, img00002.xxx, and so on.
If a valid path is not provided, an error will be returned.
This property interacts with other properties, depending on the value set.
