This application is a modern frontend UI to the old Canon interface for the Canon LiDE 25, an ancient flatbed scanner, that I bought ahem... a long time ago and that is officially not supported on Windows 11.
Good news it's possible to make it work! However he original UI is quite outdated and I wanted to make something a little nicer.
Currently only the Scan feature works but I plan to implement the other 2 options.

For 32 bit (the only way it worked for my scanner):
- Install latest Python 32 bit version: https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3122/
- Get the latest twain-dsm version: https://github.com/twain/twain-dsm/tree/master/Releases/dsm_020403
- Read this: https://github.com/twain/twain-dsm/tree/master/TWAIN_DSM and put the the 32 bit DLL from the repo in
