Default Scanner

This policy setting is used for centralized management of scanner autoselection.
The following autoselection modes are used:
"None" - do not select scanners automatically;
"Autoselect" - automatically select the plugged scanner;
"Last used" - automatically select the last used scanner;
"Specified" - the selected scanner is determined by the contents of the "Specified scanner" field.

If this policy setting is enabled, the scanner autoselection mode for all users of this computer will be overridden by this policy setting and users won't be able to change the autoselection mode via the settings interface.
Also this policy setting overrides the similar policy setting for all users of this computer.

If this policy setting is disabled or not configured, the autoselection mode is determined via the similar policy setting for the user, or via the settings interface.
