2. INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS  
Please unpack the Scanner carefully, and check the contents against the checklist. If  
any items are missing or damaged, please contact your authorized local dealer  
immediately.  
Precautions  
Keep the Scanner out of direct sunlight. Direct exposure to the sun or excessive  
heat may cause damage to the unit.  
Do not install the Scanner in a humid or dusty place.  
Be sure to use the proper AC power source.  
Place the Scanner securely on an even, flat surface. Tilted or uneven surfaces may  
cause mechanical or paper-feeding problems.  
Retain the Scanner box and packing materials for shipping purposes.  
2.1 Shipping Bracket  
The Scanner has a bracket that locks the carrier mechanism for transportation  
purposes. This bracket must be put into the use position before using the Scanner.  
If the power is turned on before the bracket has been removed the PAPER JAM light  
will turn on. Before proceeding, turn the power off, disconnect all cables and follow  
the instructions below to remove the shipping bracket.  
2.1.1 Removing the Shipping Bracket (refer to figures 2-1 and 2-2)  
i).  
Carefully place the Scanner in an upright position on its front.

2.2 SCSI Interface Device ID  
When you have several devices on a SCSI chain, you may need to adjust  
the SCSI ID selector setting located on the back of the Scanner. This setting assigns a  
specific "device ID" to the Scanner. If the assignment conflicts with an existing SCSI  
device, please select a new ID. (See Figure 2-3)  
Note: The factory setting for Scanner is ID 6. Usually, ID 0 is assigned to an internal  
hard disk drive, and ID 7, to SCSI adapter or host. ID 8 and 9 are not in actual  
use.  
Using a suitable tool, turn the selector switch until the arrow points to the desired ID  
number.

Your Scanner is designed to be maintenance free. However, it still needs to  
be cleaned occasionally to ensure optimum image quality and performance.  
From time to time the pad assembly and feeding rollers may become  
contaminated with ink, toner particles or paper dust. In this case the  
scanner may not feed documents smoothly or several documents may feed  
at once. If this occurs please follow the cleaning procedures to return your  
Scanner to its original state.

are clean. Be careful not to snag or damage the pick springs.  
iii). Wipe the pad in the direction from top to bottom. Be careful not to  
hook the pick springs.  
iv). Close the ADF unit. Your Scanner is now ready for use.

4. TROUBLESHOOTING  
The Scanner will automatically perform a simple self-test each time it is
