RESETTING/INITIALIZING THE SCANNER

If the scanner’s display locks up or does not work properly after you connect a power source, you might need to reset or initialize the scanner.

IMPORTANT! If you have problems, first try to reset the scanner (see “Resetting the Scanner”). If that does not work, you can initialize the scanner (see “Initializing the Scanner” on Page 50); however, this clears all information stored in your scanner’s memory.

Resetting the Scanner

1.Turn off the scanner, then turn it on again.

2.Insert a pointed object, such as a straightened paper clip, into the reset opening on the side of the scanner (as shown below) and gently press then release the reset button inside the opening.

Note: If the scanner still does not work properly, you might need to initialize the scanner (see “Initializing the Scan- ner” on Page 50).
