Testing the operation of the scanner

Testing the scanner can help you determine whether the
problem lies with the scanner or the computer.
To test the scanner, follow these steps:
1. Make sure both the scanner and computer are turned off.
2. Unlock the wire clips or loosen the screws on both sides of
the scanner's interface connector, and remove the ground
connector, if necessary. Then disconnect the cable from the
scanner's connector.
Problem and solution

Error occurred in interface connection or settings. Check
the interface connections as well as the port or SCSI ID
settings, and then press the RESET button. If the error
does not clear, turn off the scanner; after about 10
seconds, turn it back on. If the problem still persists,
contact your dealer.
