Using the low level WIA COM provides a stream based data-transfer method using IWiaTransfer and IWiaTransferCallback. Unfortunately, the C# WIA wrappers I can find are using the script automation interface, which does not provide a streaming scan interface. #TWAIN SANE BRIDGE HOW TO#ΔΆ0 of the Twain Specification, titled Buffered Memory Mode Transfer, explains how to use a fixed-size buffer to incrementally transfer the scan data using the commands DAT_SETUPMEMXFER and DAT_IMAGEMEMXFER. This still blocks for each incremental memory buffer, but after each buffer it allows the application to show the partial incoming data, and continue the transfer or cancel it. I tried twain-cs and twain-dsm as supplied by, but they don't see my scanner. I'd also like to avoid have to install the LGPL twaindsm.dll. The twaindotnet wrapper provides some Twain support which works and doesn't require the native TwainDSM DLL. After the upgrade to OSX 10.8, the TWAIN->SANE bridge I used stopped working. Unfortunately, it doesn't (yet) support Buffered Memory Transfers. After some investigation I found that TWAIN is officially deprecated and. The TWAIN Direct initiative is designed to minimize the coding required to support fully-featured image capture solutions in developer applications. My incremental_scanning branch of twaindotnet is able to incrementally show the image pixels as they arrive, right in the native UI. However, it still blocks the UI thread for each incremental transfer chunk. It's not clear if this blocking can be moved to a background thread or not.
