EVA Drivers version 6.1 and TWAIN Installation Guide

 

It is very important to follow the correct order when installing the new drivers. The correct order is to always install the EVA drivers 6.1 after installing ProImage. This is due to the fact that previous versions of ProImage also install drivers and can overwrite the correct files. If at any time you install ProImage, always re-install the EVA drivers 6.1 as well.

If you are using the new EVAsoft or ViewAll Vet software the installation order is not important.

 

The new EVA drivers 6.1 are backward compatible and will function correctly with previous versions of EVAsoft, ViewAll Vet and ProImage.

 

Please note that the EVA Drivers 6.1 will work on these operating systems ONLY:
