Setting up the Automatic Document Feeder

Setting up the Automatic Document Feeder is a simple process that requires no special tools. After installation, the document feeder works as the top cover of the scanner. If you find later that you don’t need the feeder, you can easily remove it and replace it with the original scanner cover.

Set up the scanner first: Before you connect the Automatic Document Feeder to your scanner, you need to set up the Apple Color OneScanner and install the scanner software. See Chapters 2 and 3 for instructions if you haven’t yet set up the scanner hardware and software.
