Scanning and hardware problems

The scanner icon has an “X” across it when I start up my Macintosh.

mThe scanner may be off.

Make sure the scanner is plugged in and that the power light is on.

mYou may have turned on the power in the wrong sequence.

Always switch on the scanner before you switch on the Macintosh. Shut down the Macintosh, switch the scanner on, wait about 20 seconds, and restart the Macintosh.

mThe SCSI ID number or termination may be incorrectly set.

Check the setting for the SCSI switch on the back of the scanner. For information, see Chapter 2, “Setting Up the Scanner.”
