Unpacking the Scanner
While unpacking the scanner, inspect the shipping carton
for any signs of mishandling or damage. Your scanner’s
packing carton and padding material has been carefully
chosen to prevent damage to the unit in shipping and can
withstand a reasonable amount of abuse.
Refer to the package contents checklist included with your
scanner to ensure that you received all of the parts
necessary for scanner setup. Should you observe any
damage or missing parts, contact the shipper and your
dealer immediately.

Unlocking the Carriage
To prevent damage to the scanner’s moving parts, the
scanner carriage is locked into place prior to shipment.
You must unlock the carriage before powering up the
scanner. Failure to do so may damage the scanner and will
void your warranty. Follow the unlocking instructions
below:
The carriage lock of the ArtixScan 1100 is located on the
underside of the scanner.
To unlock the carriage, insert a flathead screwdriver or a
coin into the locking screw slot and turn the screw a
quarter turn counter-clockwise. Once unlocked the screw
head will pop out slightly but will remain in the scanner.
Note: The scanner must be relocked prior to any future
scanner transportation or relocation.
