Installing a SCSI adapter in a PC
If you are using a PC-compatible computer, you must have a
SCSI host adapter installed in your computer for connection
to the scanner. We recommend an Adaptec SCSI host
adapter. Before connection, be sure the settings are correct;
check the documentation for your adapter. The SprintScan 45
scanner is compatible with most Windows ASPI-supported
adapters (such as Adaptec).
For detailed information about installing the card, refer to the
instructions provided with your adapter card.
Connecting the scanner to your computer
WARNING: ALL CONNECTIONS MUST BE MADE WITH THE

OTHER CONNECTED EQUIPMENT. PAY STRICT ATTENTION
TO THE SEQUENCE OF INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS SECTION.
FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO YOUR
COMPUTER AND/OR THE SCANNER. SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT
COVERED BY THE WARRANTY.
1 Turn off your computer, and then turn off the scanner.
2 Connect the 25-pin end of the data cable to the SCSI port on
