Abstract
A computer system with a scanner web service set up as a local host is provided. An HTTP message is received from a client-side web application code client-side running in a web browser on the computer system by the scanner web service. A message based on the received HTTP message is sent to a scanner driver that is in communication with a scanner connected to or integrated with the computer system. Scanned image information is received from the scanner driver, and is provided to the client-side web application code running the web browser.
