Connecting the Scanner to the
Computer

There are two methods for connecting the scanner to a computer: a USB connection to a
standard USB port built in to the computer, or SCSI connection to a SCSI card installed in an
expansion slot of the computer. Select the method that is best suited to your computer
environment.

❏ Do not connect both USB and SCSI cables to the scanner at the same time.
❏ Use only the supplied power cord.
❏ The scanner and computer should both be turned OFF when making connections.
❏ Make sure that the computer is turned OFF before connecting the SCSI cable. The

scanner may not be properly recognized by the computer if it is connected while
the computer is turned ON.

❏ A SCSI cable is not supplied with the scanner. Obtain a cable with connectors that

match the SCSI connectors on both the scanner and the computer.

Turning the Power ON (Scanner
Recognition)

When you turn ON the computer and the scanner, the Windows Plug and Play function
recognizes the scanner and automatically installs the required device driver.

The scanner is now connected to your computer.
Next, you need to turn on the scanner and ensure Windows
recognizes it. (

STEP 4)

❏ Observe the following when connecting the scanner with other devices in a “daisy

chain”.

• The SCSI ID of the scanner is set to “SCSI ID = 2” by default. When using a

daisy-chain configuration with other SCSI devices, set the DIP switches so that
SCSI ID numbers are not duplicated in the system.

• The scanner incorporates a SCSI terminator which is permanently set to ON.

When using a daisy-chain configuration with other SCSI devices, make sure
that the scanner is connected as the last device in the chain. Set the
terminators of all other devices to OFF.

❏ When connecting the scanner to the computer using a SCSI cable, be sure to turn

ON the scanner first, and then turn ON the computer. If you turn ON the computer
first, the scanner may not be properly recognized by the computer.

❏ After turning the scanner OFF, wait at least 10 seconds before turning it ON again.
❏ If you will not be using the scanner for an extended period, disconnect the power

cord from the AC outlet for safety.
