Installing the IEEE 1394/Firewire Interface Board (4000 ED Only)
If your computer is not already equipped with a built-in IEEE 1394 interface port or a suitable
expansion board or card, you can install the IEEE 1394/Firewire interface board provided with
your scanner. Detailed instructions may be found in the manual included with the interface
board.
Do I Need to Install the IEEE 1394/Firewire Interface Board?
You will not need to install the IEEE 1394 (Firewire) interface board provided with your scanner if:
•Your computer is equipped with a built-in IEEE 1394 (Firewire) port. Macintosh
users should note that old-model (beige) G3 computers are not equipped with a
built-in Firewire port.
•Your computer is equipped with an IEEE 1394 (Firewire) expansion board or card
approved for use with the 4000 ED.
The IEEE 1394 (Firewire) interface board included with your scanner can not be used in laptop
computers or in low-profile PCI slots. In these cases, you will need to install one of the interface
boards or cards recommended by Nikon. For more information, see the following web site:

Installing the Interface Board
There are two steps to installing the interface board:
1. Insert the interface board in one of your computer’s free PCI slots ( 10)
2. Install the drivers for the interface board (Windows only; 11–15)
In Windows XP, Windows 2000 Professional, and Windows Me, the necessary drivers will be
installed automatically after you install the interface board.
If you are using a computer running Windows 98 SE, you must update the IEEE 1394
driver as instructed on page 17 of this manual before installing the interface board.
