Choosing A Local Scanner; No Scanners Found When Scanwizard Pro Is Launched - Microtek ScanWizard Pro's User Manual

Choosing a local scanner

You can use the local scanner directly connected to your computer for scanning, even though remote
scanners can be found on the network. Follow these steps to choose a local scanner for scanning:
1. Make sure that you have ScanWizard Pro (with or without MSS utility program on your system).
2. Make sure that your connected local scanners are in the ready state.
3. Select your connected local scanner from the Scanner menu of ScanWizard Pro. The active scanner is
shown with a check mark.
If none of the connected local scanners is listed in the Scanner menu, use either of the two ways listed
below to locate the local scanners:
• Choose Scanner Probe from the Scanner menu, and click Probe to locate the connected local
scanners; or
• Right-click the mouse button on the MSS icon to select Probe Scanners from the menu. If
connected local scanners can be found by system, then they will be listed in the Probe Scanners
window.
When the connected local scanners are found by the system, this indicates that the found, local scanners can
be selected in the Scanner menu of ScanWizard Pro. If no connected local scanner can be found by the
system, refer to the troubleshooting document on the Microtek CD-ROM for more details.

No scanners found when ScanWizard Pro is launched

When ScanWizard Pro is launched and the system is unable to find any local or remote scanner, the
Microtek ScanWizard Pro window will appear, as shown below. Click TCP/IP Scanner Setup to specify
network scanner servers for accessing scanners, then click Scanner Probe to detect all linked scanners on
the network. If found, all linked scanners with their related information will be listed in Scanner Probe
window, and the list of available scanners in the ScanWizard Pro Scanner menu will be automatically
updated. Click the Close button to exit ScanWizard Pro.
