I have a Sharp AR5220d - I've downloaded and installed correctly the TWAIN driver from Sharp's website.

Everything works smoothly but I'd like to use this scanner with a free application (better) or a small paid one like VueScan.

It works perfectly but since I'm unable to force the TWAIN driver utilization - I get fewer options and mainly I'm not able to use duplex.

Any hints on how to force the TWAIN driver?

Take a look at IrfanView.

Paint.net

File->Acquire

This submenu contains one item: From Scanner or Camera. This allows you to create a new image that is acquired from either a scanner or camera attached to your computer. The scanner or camera must support Windows Image Acquisition 2.0 (WIA).

Paperscan works with a TWAIN driver for scanners on the system.
