2Press and hold the eject button until the status LED stops blinking (about three seconds). The scan mechanism will lock.
3Turn the scanner off and disconnect the power and interface cables.
4Repackage the scanner in the original packing materials (if the original packing materials are unavailable, use materials at least as shock resistant as the originals).
Transporting the Scanner
Nikon scanners are only certified for use in the region or country of sale. Transport or use outside the region or country of sale is at the risk and responsibility of the user.
Servicing
Nikon scanners are precision devices. We recommend that the scanner and holders be taken to an au- thorized Nikon service representative once every one to two years for inspection, and once every three to five years for servicing (fees are charged for these services). Frequent inspection and servicing are particularly recommended in the case of scanners used in commercial applications.
