Installing the Software
To connect this device to a computer, install the printer driver, scanner utilities, and the Advanced
Tools, etc.
The installation procedure may vary depending on the version of the CD-ROM supplied with the
device. Some versions may provide a choice between Express mode and Custom mode. For
details, follow the CD-ROM wizard.
The following procedures and screenshots are based on a Windows XP installation, but the same
procedure may be followed to install on other Windows operating systems including Windows Vista.
NOTE: Installation on Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows NT 4.0/2000 and Server 2003 must
be performed by a user logged on with administrator privileges.
If you run the installation in Windows Vista, you need to confirm that the installation program comes
from a trusted vendor. This is a Microsoft standard process for your own safety.
