Old scanners don't have support for the WIA API. So the Twain API should be supported as well.

Beware that Twain scanners may appear as WIA scanners as well (or is it the opposite ?)

@jflesch jflesch added this to the 2.1.0 milestone Nov 10, 2016

Twain would open up a lot of hardware

Not so much actually. Afaik, by default, Twain is only available on 32-bits Windows. On 64-bits Windows, Scanner makers have to make drivers for WIA2. So to me, it seems Twain is clearly dying.
