Setting Up the Scanner Server

You can set up any Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows 98, Windows 95, or
Windows NT 4.0 computer as a scanner server, as long as it has a network interface
card installed and is running the TCP/IP protocol.

Before you begin, make sure to unlock the scanner and connect it to the scanner
server (see Chapter 2, “Setting Up Your Scanner,” for details). If you don’t have the
TCP/IP protocol installed on the scanner server, see Appendix B, “Installing the
TCP/IP Protocol.”

Follow the instructions for your operating system:

If you’re running Windows Me, continue with the next section.

If you’re running Windows 2000, go to page 71.

If you’re running Windows 98, go to page 75.

If you’re running Windows 95 or Windows NT, go to page 80.

Installing the Scanner Server Software on
Windows Me

Before you begin, make sure the Expression 1680 is connected to your computer.
Also, make sure you’ve recalibrated your monitor to factory specifications.

Depending on how your computer system was originally set up, you may be asked to
insert your Windows Me CD-ROM during driver installation. Make sure you have it
available, or know where to find the Windows source files on your hard disk (for
example, in the Windows folder). If you need help, contact your computer
manufacturer.

If you’ve just installed a SCSI or IEEE 1394 interface card, you may be
asked to install a driver at the beginning of installation. Follow the
instructions on the screen to install the best driver, then continue with the
scanner server installation.
