Chapter 2

Setting Up Your Scanner

Setting up your scanner is easy—just follow the steps in this chapter in the order
listed below.

1. Unpack and choose a good place for your scanner.

2. Install the SCSI interface board (if necessary).

3. Unlock the scanner.

4. Set the SCSI ID number and terminator switch.

5. Initialize the scanner.

6. Connect the scanner to your computer.

7. Turn on your scanner first, then turn on your computer.

8. Install the SCSI software, scanner software, and any other software applications

on your EPSON GT-10000 Scanner Software CD-ROM.

Unpacking Your Scanner

Remove the scanner from the box, then remove the packing material from your
scanner. Save the packaging in case you need it later.

The scanner is large and heavy, so you may need to have
someone help you unpack and lift it.

Make sure you plug the scanner into a properly grounded
outlet. Check the system and location requirements and
follow all the safety instructions in Appendix C, “Notices.”
