Connecting to a Computer
There are two ways to connect the scanner to your computer, SCSI or USB. Use
the method that is compatible with your computer system.
■ Do not turn OFF the scanner or remove any interface cables when an application is
running.
■ Do not connect both SCSI and USB interface cables at the same time.
■ When connecting to another SCSI device sequentially after connecting a SCSI cable
to the scanner, be sure to attach the ferrite core to the SCSI cable. If you use the
scanner without attaching the ferrite core, radio wave interference may occur.
■ Turn OFF the computer and the scanner before changing the cable format.
SCSI Connections

shape of the connector on your computer’s SCSI card or on the SCSI device
connected to your computer, and prepare a SCSI cable that is compatible with the
connector that can be connected to the scanner.
