STEP 3: CHECKING OUT YOUR SCANNER

3.Choose About from the shortcut menu.

A dialog box conﬁrms that the scanner is properly connected.

4.Click OK to close the dialog box. That’s it. Your scanner is ready to scan. See “Scanning: Three Ways” on page 10.

Note: The scanning lamp under the scanner’s glass needs to warm up before you can scan. A status message lets you know when the lamp is ready. The lamp then remains ready so you don’t have to wait for it to warm up each time you want to scan. To conserve electricity and prolong the life of the scanner, you can set the length of time for the lamp to remain lit before powering down. See “Setting Preferences” on page 23.

IF THE SCANNER IS NOT PROPERLY CONNECTED

If the scanner icon on the Windows taskbar has a red “X” through it, the scanner is not properly connected.

Check for one of these possible problems:

•Is a cable loose or not plugged in securely? Inspect all cable connections. Make sure all the cables are plugged in securely.
