The TWAIN drive should be installed when one installs the actual "Drivers" for the unit itself, accordingly I provide you with the download link below.... look for and install ALL drivers and software, especially the Scan manager and TWAIN drivers....

The scanner creates a Raster Image and if it is grey or color, the size is big. After a few images are scanned, the 'buffer' inside the scanner is full. It may take more time to process the scanned image by the scanner if it is 24 bit color. The image is sent to the computer Harddisk and if the disk is full or if it had not been defragged for a long time, the sectors may not be contiguous for speedy writing, This will slow up the scanning. Ensure the disk has large space. 'Scan ahead' slows down scanning speed. (Without scan ahead, the next page is fed only after processing, whereas when selected, just after the previous page is scanned, the scanner start the next one)

The Twain driver is used to scan images into the computer.
It is either corrupted or deleted.
Reinstall the Canon scanning software, it includes the Twain driver.

Try scanning from your PC, if you have a program that will allow it... if you have Word '97, you can do it like this:

1. With your scanner ready and the image on the scanner glass, in Clip Organizer, on the File menu, point to Add Clips to Organizer, and then click From Scanner or Camera.
2. In the Insert Picture from Scanner or Camera dialog box, under Device, select the scanner.
3. Click Insert. The new clip appears in the My Collections folder, in a folder named after your scanner
   

If you do not have Word '97, but a program that SHOULD work but doesn't have the correct driver, go to www.twain.org for the latest twain-compliant drivers for your scanner! You may also be able to find a simple scanning app (in the downloads section) at www.cnet.com

Hope this helps!

Hi,
I can understand that u get TWAIN driver not installed or required error on PC while scanning.
Twain drivers are imaging driver which are bundled with complete software.
Incase if you try to replace just the twain driver it may corrupt anoth files.
It is always advisable to clean the computer and reinstall the complete software.

If connected via USB, unplug cable and insert into another available port and error message should disappear.

Windows Me and 2000 - A new camera TWAIN driver (version 4.1e) compatible with Windows Me and 2000 is now available for download. The new TWAIN driver will allow photo transfer using most image viewing or editing programs that are TWAIN compatible. Windows NT4 - No TWAIN driver is available for use with Windows NT4. However, the PDC 1100 accommodates a removable CompactFlash memory card (maximum 128MB) for storing images. When used with a Windows NT4-compatible CompactFlash card reader, images can be dragged and dropped from the camera's memory card to any location on your computer's hard drive.

Nikon View requires at least twice as much free space on the startup disk as the size of the CF Card being used to transfer images. For example, to transfer images from a 1GB card you will need at least 2GB free space for temporary storage while the images are transfered. The free space must be on the hard disk that the operating system is starting up from, even if the destination for the transfer is on a different drive.
