3. Turn on the power switch, located on the back of the scanner to the
left of the power port.
The status light comes on and flashes indicating that the scanner is
receiving power.
If you are using Windows XP Service Pack 2, and have plugged the
USB cable into a USB 1.1 port, an information bubble may open
explaining that “A HI-SPEED USB device is plugged into a non-
HI-SPEED USB hub”. Plug the USB cable into a USB 2.0 port (if
available) or just disregard the message. If you leave it plugged into
the USB 1.1 port, your scanner may scan a bit slower than the 20
pages per minute available with a USB 2.0 port.
Your computer then recognizes that a scanner has been plugged into
the USB port and automatically loads the appropriate software to
run the scanner.
Do not proceed until you receive a message that your computer has
found the new hardware, or updated the driver database. If your
computer is running Windows XP, you will see the following message.
Note: If you have not installed the scanner driver, unplug the USB
cable from the computer and install the software now. When the
driver installation is complete, a message tells you when to connect the
scanner.
