Preparation Before Use

This chapter describes how to prepare the scanner to scan documents.

Setting Up the Scanner

Perform the following steps to set up the CR-190i. Refer to the section for each step for details about that step.

1 Check your operating environment. (See “Checking Your Operating Environment” on p. 9.)

2 Install the software. (See “Installing the Scanning Utility” on p. 9.)

Install the Scanning Utility provided with the CR-190i.

3 Connect the scanner to a computer. (See “Connecting the Scanner to a Computer” on p. 10.)

IMPORTANT

To have the device drivers installed automatically when the computer recognizes the CR-190i, the software needs to be installed before the CR-190i is connected to the computer.

If you connect the computer and turn ON the CR-190i before installing the software, the following wizard screen appears. If this happens, click [Cancel], turn OFF the CR-190i, and then install the software.

The following wizard screen is an example in Windows Vista. When a similar wizard screen appears in Windows XP/7, click [Cancel].
