I am not that familiar with Omnipage but usually when the driver is set
for a specific scanner it assumes that you are using the controller card
supplied with the scanner. As it appears you are using an Adaptec
controller card you need to set Omnipage to the twain driver unless there
is an Adaptec specific driver provided.
