Choosing A Place For The Scanner - Epson FILMSCAN 200 User Manual

Remove all protective materials packed with your scanner
before you set it up and turn on the power. Save all packaging
and protective materials in case you need to transport the
scanner later.

Choosing a Place for the Scanner

Follow the guidelines listed below when selecting a location for
your scanner:
Place the scanner on a flat, stable surface. The scanner will
not operate properly if it is tilted or at an angle.
Place the scanner close enough to the computer for the
interface cable to reach it easily.
Allow some space behind the scanner for the cables, and
make sure to place the scanner where you can easily
unplug the power cord. Also allow sufficient space in front
of and behind the scanner so that the film carrier can move
fully forward and backward while scanning the images.
Keep the scanner away from high temperatures and
humidity. Also avoid using or storing the scanner in places
subject to rapid changes of temperature and humidity.
Keep the scanner away from direct sunlight and strong
light sources.
Avoid places subject to shocks and vibrations.
