I've noticed just recently (probably since installing SP1) that my Canon
Lide 60 has stopped working right. To be specific, the only way I can
reach the scanner interface for advanced scanning is to launch it from
the canon toolbox utility. Then, once the image is delivered to
photoshop, I have to start the re-launch the scanner interface again; I
can't get it to stay open for more pages to be scanned. It used to open
just fine directly from Photoshop and wouldn't close until I
deliberately dismissed it.

I've checked MS knowledge base and Canon support but I see no newer
drivers and no other reports of my specific issue. The error I get when
trying to open the twain interface from photoshop is: "Could not open
the twain source".

Other apps, such as Microsoft Doc imaging, don't see teh scanner at
all. I also tried downloading VueScan but that couldn't see the scanner
either.

I only scan infrequently so I'm not gonna run out and buy a new
scanner, but when I do scan it's usually more than one page, so this is
a pain.

Thanks, Bob Graham
