address where your computer accesses the parallel
port. Personal computers are capable of having many
different parallel port configurations to support a
variety of different add-on devices.
Physical Connection
The first thing to do when trying to solve
connection problems is to check the physical
connections. Right now, please take time to double-
check that:
1.
Your scanner is plugged in to an electrical
socket.
2.
The scanner cable is firmly plugged into the
HOST socket in the scanner and the parallel
port in the back of your computer.
Note:
If you find that one of your cables are not
plugged in or is plugged in incorrectly, make sure to
shut down and turn off your computer before plugging
it in.
BIOS Settings
The Parallel Port Address for the scanner MUST
match the Parallel Port Address in the BIOS Setup.
Thus, the next thing you should do is to find out what
the BIOS setting is. To do this, you must shut down
Windows and restart your computer. At the very
beginning of the boot-up process, before Windows
starts to load, there will be a message that says
something like - Press <del> for Setup - or -Press F1
for Settings-. You need to press the delete key or F1
at this time and upon doing it, you will be presented
with the BIOS Settings Screen. If Windows begins to
load, you have missed the chance and need to restart
the computer and try again. In the BIOS Setup Screen,
locate and go to the Input/Output (I/O) Ports settings.
Locate the setting for Parallel Port Address and write
it down.
