Topic: How to Save the Scanner Settings and Calibration Files
Calibration Files
The scanner calibration files are stored to the following files -
Win 7 &  Vista:  \Users\Public\Public Documents\EDT
XP:                    Documents and Settings\All Users\Shared Documents\EDT
 
Filenames:
    EDT600C.CLB, EDT900C.CLB
    EDT901.CLB, EDTP960C.CLB
    EDT1200.CLB, EDT1210.CLB etc
where the numbers represent the scanner model number.
 
Note: The scanner driver will prompt the user to calibrate the scanner when it is unable to access the calibration file. You should ensure that the user account has read/write access to the calibration file. If the prompt is constantly displayed for a user, then (i) delete the existing calibration file, and (ii) login as the user and perform a calibration. You can also refer to this link for more information on "How to disable the calibration prompt"

Twain Initialization Files
After each scan, the latest Twain scanner settings are saved to the following files -
A. BizCardReader 901, DX1210 Scanners:
Win 7 & Vista:  \Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\EDT
XP:                   Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\EDT
 
B. BizCardReader 600C, 900C, P960, DX1200 Scanners:
Win 7 & Vista: \Users\Username\AppData\Local\Temp
XP:                 Documents and Settings\Username\LocalSettings\Temp

Filenames:
    EDT600C.INI, EDT900C.INI, EDT901.INI, EDTP960C.INI
    EDT1200.INI,EDT1210.INI etc
where the numbers represent the scanner model number.

NOTES:
1. For the system to "remember" the Twain scanning parameters, ensure that you have
    a. Read & Write access to the corresponding Twain initialization file.
    b. The Twain initialization file does not get deleted by the OS or other program

2. To set/change the parameters in the ini file, the simplest method is to start a scan. In the scan dialog box, select the desired scanning options. Then perform a single scan with the selected parameters; this will cause the latest scan parameters to be automatically saved to the ini file.
