This software is not compatible with Fast User switching on Mac OS X. The user must logon to use this software. Fast User Switching with Windows XP may prevent the software from operating properly. The operating system's stand-by or sleep function may cause an error or freeze the scan utility; turn the function off.

Mac OS 9.2.2 Notes

When using digital SHO, turn the virtual memory off. Allocate the RAM requirements above to the Easy Scan Utility, DiMAGE Scan Utility, or Batch Scan Utility when used alone. When using the DiMAGE Scan Utility through an image-processing application, add the memory requirements to the host software.

To use Pixel Polish, the unused block of memory must be four times the size of the scanned image. When using the utility with an image-processing application, check the amount of unused memory with the host application open, but before launching the scanner utility.
