Mac OS X detection of scanners seems to be a topic which comes up from time to time but I haven't found any threads with definitive answers.
I have a Fujitsu ScanSnap S1300 which I am able to use with my iMac but only if I start the ScanSnap Manager application manually. I don't use the scanner every day so don't really want the software running all the time. I would like to be able to have ScanSnap Manager start automatically when the scanner powers up.
My first thought was to use Image Capture but the scanner doesn't show up as a detected device (with or without the app running).
It does show up in System Profiler but I don't know what tools or settings are available to cause the system to launch the app.
Can anyone give me any tips?
I'm running Snow Leopard
