INSTALLING TO A PARALLEL PORT
This section explains how to connect the Visioneer scanner to a parallel port. If you are connecting a 6200 scanner, you must connect it to a USB port. For more information, see “Installing to a USB Port” on page 5.
STEP 1: CONNECTING TO A PARALLEL PORT
The Visioneer 6400 scanner connects to any available parallel (LPT) port on the back of your computer.
To connect the 6400 scanner to a parallel port:
1.Save any open files, and then shut down Windows.
2.Turn off the power to your computer.
3.If a printer is already attached to your computer’s parallel port, unplug the printer cable from the computer. If you don’t have a printer attached to your computer, skip this step.
