Appendix A: Using the Service and Assembly Module (SAM)
The Service and Assembly Module (SAM) software performs many of the same functions as other host software. Its primary purpose for users is to validate that your scanner is working correctly and to allow you to perform simple scan functions. There are also service and diagnostics functions that should be used only with the assistance of a Kodak service representative.
Functions supported by the SAM software are:
