Scanning Problems

Condition

Suggested solutions

 

 

The scanner does not work.

• Make sure that you place the document to be

 

scanned face down on the document glass, or

 

face up in the Automatic Document Feeder.

 

• There may not be enough available memory to

 

hold the document you want to scan. Try the

 

Prescan function to see if that works. Try

 

lowering the scan resolution rate.

 

• Check that the USB or parallel cable is

 

connected properly.

 

• Make sure that the USB or parallel cable is not

 

defective. Switch the cable with a known good

 

cable. If necessary, replace the cable.

 

• If you are using a parallel cable, ensure that it

 

is compliant with the IEEE 1284 standard.

 

• Check that the scanner is configured correctly.

 

The application you want to use to make

 

certain that the scanner job is being sent to

 

the correct port, for example, LPT1.

 

 

The unit scans very slowly.

• Check if the machine is printing received data.

 

Scan the document after the current job is

 

completed.

 

• Graphics are scanned more slowly than text.

 

• Communication speed becomes slow in scan

 

mode because of the large amount of memory

 

required to analyse and reproduce the scanned

 

image. Set your computer to the ECP printer

 

mode through BIOS setting. It will help to

 

increase the speed. For details about how to

 

set BIOS, refer to your computer’s Operating

 

Instructions.
