Chapter II Operation Guidelines
2.1 Scanning Preparation
1. Plug in the M3000 power adapter and switch ON the device by pressing the
power switch at the rear of the base.
2. Connect the hand button or foot pedal to the port furnished at the base of
M3000.
3. When using the Flat Single Page mode, the V-shaped book rest will not be
required and can be folded up. The document can be placed in the center of the
black pad.
When using the Facing Pages mode for scanning curved pages (of books or
publications), the V-shaped book rest can be used. The book rest can be
extended to the left or right according to the thickness of the book. The book
can then be placed at the center of the book rest.
4. Check the LCD on the head portion to see if the black area of the V-shaped book
rest covers the entire screen and ensure that the desk surface or random edges are
not included within the scan. You may extend or retract the left and right sides of
the V-shaped book rest to make adjustments. Make sure this step is carried out
properly because it is essential for the smart algorithms. Improper adjustments may
lead to errors in image processing. Prior to adjusting, place a book on the black
area. The equipment will automatically hide areas that appear abnormal.
