To align the scanner, follow the steps below: 

1. 

Place a photograph on the top right side of the scanner glass (near the back of the scanner).  

Please note that only part of the photograph will be scanned. 

2. 

Select NORMAL from the ALIGNMENT SOURCE drop down menu. 

3. 

Click on the SCAN button 

.  Part of the photograph will be displayed in the 

ALIGNMENT window. 

4. 

Click on the ALIGN POSITION buttons until the top left corner of the scanned photograph 

aligns with the top left corner of the preview window. 

5. 

Click on the check mark button 

 when the alignment has been completed. 

 

Lamp Control 

The scanner’s lamp may be turned ON and OFF manually in the Scanner Utility program. While 

there, you can also set a timer to turn the lamp off after the scanner has been idle for a 

designated amount of time. 

 

To do this, click on the Windows START button and choose PROGRAMS, Genius Scanner (the 

model name of your scanner), SCANNER UTILITY. In the window that opens, find the Lamp 

Control section shown below: 

 

 

 

Click on the On/Off switch at the far right of the section to immediately turn the scanning lamp on 

or off. 

 

You may also set the default time for the lamp to automatically turn off after a scan by clicking the 

up or down arrows next to the area that reads “minutes to turn off lamp.” 

Maintenance 

To keep your scanner working smoothly, take a moment to review the following maintenance tips. 

• 

Avoid using the scanner in a dusty environment. When it is not in use, keep the scanner 

covered. Dust particles and other foreign objects may damage the unit.  

• 

Do not attempt to disassemble the scanner. There is danger of an electrical shock and 

opening your scanner will void your warranty.  

• 

Do not subject the scanner to excessive vibration. It may damage the internal components.
