SUGGESTED SOLUTIONS
Make sure that you place the original to be
scanned face down on the scanner glass, or
face up in the ADF.
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 cable is connected
properly.
Make sure that the USB cable is not
defective. Switch the cable with a known
good cable. If necessary, replace the cable.
Check that the scanner is configured
correctly. Check scan setting in the SmarThru
Configuration or the application you want to
use to make certain that the scanner job is
being sent to the correct port.
Check if the machine is printing received
data. If so, scan the document after the
received data has been printed.
Graphics are scanned more slowly than text.
Communication speed slows in scan mode
because of the large amount of memory
required to analyze 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
user's guide.
There may be a copying or printing job in
progress. When that job is complete, try your
job again.
The Selected port is currently being used.
Restart your computer and try again.
The printer cable may be improperly
connected or the power may be off.
The scanner driver is not installed or the
operating environment is not set up properly.
Ensure that the machine is properly
connected and the power is on, Then restart
your computer.
The USB cable may be improperly connected
or the power may be off.
SUGGESTED SOLUTIONS
