Setting Up the Scanner

Choosing a Place for the Scanner

Follow the guidelines below when selecting a location for your 
scanner.

Place the scanner on a flat, stable surface. The scanner does 
not operate properly if it is tilted at an angle.

Place the scanner close enough to the computer for the 
interface cable to reach it easily.

Place the scanner near an electrical outlet where the power 
cord can be easily unplugged.

Keep the scanner away from high temperature, humidity and 
excessive dirt or dust. Also avoid using or storing the scanner 
in places subject to rapid changes of temperature and 
humidity.

Keep the scanner away from direct sunlight and strong light 
sources.

Avoid places subject to shocks and vibrations.
