Error Codes
If your scanner experiences hardware problems, the status light turns red
and will blink a specific number of times, then pause for 2 to 3 seconds,
then repeat the same number of blinks. The number of blinks between
pauses indicates the type of error code.
In all cases, you should turn off the scanner and check the scanner setup.
Make sure the USB cable is plugged into the scanner and computer. Make
sure the power cord is plugged into the scanner and into a wall outlet or
USB port.
