About the Power Supply
•Do not use an AC adapter other than the one supplied with the scanner. Other adapters may damage the equipment.
•Avoid plugging in numerous devices to the same electrical outlet. If possible, plug the scanner into a dedicated outlet. Devices sharing the outlet will drop the voltage and create static, reducing the scanner’s performance. If sharing is unavoidable, use a voltage regulating power supply or a noise reduction device.
•Check to ensure that the electrical outlet supplying the equipment has sufficient capacity.
•If the AC adapter is used with an extension, ensure that the total power cord length is no greater than 5 meters (16 feet). Longer cords will drop the voltage and may degrade scanner performance.
•Do not handle the AC adapter with wet hands to prevent the risk of electric shock.
•Do not continue using an AC adapter with a frayed, damaged or modi- fied power cord.
•Avoid frequent unplugging and plugging in of the AC adapter. It may result in a poor electrical connection.
