c
Whenever you unplug the scanner, wait at least 10 seconds before
plugging it back in. Rapidly plugging and unplugging the
scanner can damage the scanner.

Connecting the Scanner to Your Computer

Your PC must be preinstalled with Windows 98, and have a
working USB port. For Macintosh, you will need a Power
Macintosh G3 or iMac running system 8.5 or later, or system 8.1
with iMac Update 1.0. See Chapter 3 "System Requirements" for
details.
Note:
If you connect your scanner through more than one hub, your system
may not work properly. In this case, try connecting the scanner directly
to the computer's USB port. Also, your system may not work properly
if you use a USB cable other than that supplied by EPSON.

Understanding USB connections

USB Cables
USB cables enable you to connect or remove peripherals to and
from your computer easily, without having to shut down and
restart the system each time a peripheral is plugged in or
unplugged.
Note:
Do not connect or disconnect USB cables when the scanner is in use.
