parallel interface, but when you switch to SCSI, the scanner no
longer operates properly.

Command Usage
During block data transfer mode, your program does
not read the entire block at one time, but performs
multiple read commands for each data block.
Change your program so it reads the entire block in
one read operation.
Your program did not exit option mode upon
completion.
Always exit option mode upon program completion.
