Robbie,

I have about 5 or 6 different parallel port twain devices.  I have had
problems if more than one device is installed, especially if any are the
"non-32-bit" type.  To fix these situations I have found that deleting
previous twain devices and reinstalling them in a different order restores
the Twain and Twain32 to detect the attached devices.  It is a pain and I
hope someone has a better solution for adding parallel scanning devices.

BTW, I am using a laptop with both PCMCIA slots taken, so have little
choice in external devices.
