Before Using the Scanner
Important Safety Instructions
To ensure the safe operation of this scanner, be sure to read the
safety warnings and precautions described below.
Installation Location
The performance of this scanner is affected by the environment in
which it is installed. Make sure that the location where the scanner is
installed meets the following environmental requirements.
●
Provide adequate space around the scanner for operation,
maintenance, and ventilation.
●
Provide adequate space in front of the scanner, as scanned
documents are ejected from the front.
●
Avoid installing the machine in direct sunlight. If this is unavoidable,
use curtains to shade the scanner.
●
Avoid locations where a considerable amount of dust accumulates.
●
Avoid warm or humid locations, such as in the vicinity of a water
faucet, water heater, or humidifier. Avoid locations where ammonia
gas is emitted. Avoid locations near volatile or flammable materials,
such as alcohol or paint thinner.
●
Avoid locations that are subject to vibration.
●
Avoid exposing the scanner to rapid changes in temperature. If the
room in which the scanner is installed is cold but rapidly heated,
water droplets (condensation) may form inside the scanner. This
may result in a noticeable degradation in scanning quality. The
following conditions are recommended for optimal scanning quality:
Room temperature: 10°C to 32.5°C (50°F to 90.5°F)
Humidity: 25% to 80% RH
●
Avoid installing the scanner near equipment that generates a
magnetic field (e.g. speakers, televisions, or radios.)
AC Adapter (Sold Separately)
●
Do not use AC adapters other than the one specified (sold
separately) for this scanner. Do not use the AC adapter designed
for this scanner with any other device.
●
If you want to enable high-speed scanning with a USB 2.0
connection using only one USB cable, purchase an AC adapter
(sold separately).
●
If you have any questions regarding the power supply, contact your
local authorized Canon dealer or service representative for further
information.
Moving the Scanner
●
When moving the scanner, always hold it with both hands to avoid
dropping it.
●
Make sure to disconnect any USB cables and AC adapters (sold
separately) when moving the scanner. If the scanner is carried with
these items connected, the plugs and connectors may be damaged
or cause the scanner to fall and result in personal injury or damage
to the scanner.
