After installing the scanner and software, you will see a scanner icon on 
the Windows taskbar (at the bottom right corner of the computer 
screen). If the scanner is properly connected, the scanner icon looks like 
the one pictured below. 

If the icon has a red X through it, the scanner is not properly connected. 
See the section, “If the Scanner Is Not Properly Connected” on page 11 
for the steps to fix the problem.

To check the status of the scanner:

1. On the Windows taskbar, right-click the scanner icon.

The shortcut menu appears.

2. Select 

About 

from the shortcut menu.

A dialog box confirms the scanner is properly connected.

3. Click 

OK

 to close the dialog box. Your scanner is ready to scan.
