12 ArtixScan 6000XY Installation and Operation Manual
Power up sequence
Follow the power up sequence below:
1. Turn on your Macintosh.
2. Turn on your scanner by pressing the Power Push button on the right corner. You
will observe the following:
1) On the scanner panel, the lamp turns green while the Status lamp turns red
for a few seconds.
2) The Status lamp blinks green, indicating system self-test is starting.
3) The Status lamp becomes a steady green, indicating that the scanner is
ready for operation.
If the lamp indicator remains red or blinking green, this indicates the scanner is
faulty or not ready.
To fix this, turn the scanner off and turn it back on. If the LED is still red, contact
Microtek Service.
Shutdown is performed by exiting the application and then turning off the main
power switch.
Placing originals
Depending on the material you are scanning, you will be doing one of the following
below:
• Placing originals on the scan bed
• Using customized masks
• Using 35mm slide holder
Placing originals on the scan bed
For single originals:
Tape the original to the scan bed. Align the top right corner of the original with the
0,0 corner of the glass (which is at the lower right corner).
When scanning a thick reflective original such as a book, you may scan with the Top
Cover open.
