Testing Your Scanner’s Operation
To make sure your scanner is working properly, it’s a good idea to turn it on before
you connect it to your computer.
The scanner’s voltage cannot be changed. If the label on the
back of the scanner does not display the correct voltage for
your area, contact your dealer. Do not plug in the power cord.
1. Make sure the scanner is plugged in. Then open the scanner’s document cover so
you can see the operation of the carriage.
2. Press the
P
OPERATE button to turn the scanner on.
The READY light on the scanner’s front panel flashes, and the scanner’s carriage
moves forward, then back. The
READY
light stays on when the scanner is ready
to scan.
If you turn off the scanner, wait at least 10 seconds before
turning it back on. Rapidly turning the scanner on and off can
damage the scanner.
