FOR BEST RESULTS, PLEASE INSTALL THE SOFTWARE FROM THE INCLUDED INSTALLATION DVD
PROVIDED BEFORE PLUGGING IN YOUR SCANNER.

Note

As a precaution, a RED warning label has been placed on the USB cable to remind you to install the
Installation DVD first. Please remove this warning label prior to plugging in the scanner cable after you
have installed the software.

SETTING ADMINISTRATOR PRIVILEGES

If installation or calibration is not working on your Macintosh

system, the solution may be in the privileges.

When initially set up, you are given administrator privileges which should allow you to install the DSmobile
software and complete the calibration. If, however, your system is set up such that you do not have
administrator privileges or the privileges have somehow become corrupt, the installation and calibration may
not be possible. To correct this problem, do the following:

Mouse over the Apple

in the upper left corner of the desktop and select System Preferences.

Select System and then Users & Groups.

The left pane of the window will list the current accounts, one of which should be your user name with
the word “Admin” underneath.

If this is not the case, contact your system administrator to have the privileges changed so you can install
software and calibrate the scanner.
