ArtixScan 1800f Installation and Operation Manual 9
Using the USB 2.0 Cable
The ArtixScan 1800f's USB interface is a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 support port, which is
compatible with the original USB standard with the high/low data transfer rate via the
provided USB2.0 cable. Before making the USB connection, check to see if your
computer system has a built-in USB port (original USB standard) or upgrade to
include Hi-Speed USB 2.0 support port.
Currently, the Hi-Speed USB 2.0 runs only on the Windows operating system. If you
want to transfer data at high data rate, you should have installed the Hi-Speed USB
2.0 add-on card that works properly in your computer. For more details on how to
install the Hi-Speed USB 2.0 add-on card in your computer, please refer to the
documentation that came with your purchased USB 2.0 card.
