Installing the Card in Your Scanner

Before you begin, turn off the scanner and disconnect the power cord and any cables.

1. Remove the two screws securing the shield

plate to the scanner’s optional interface
slot, and then remove the plate. Put the
screws in a safe place in case you want to
reinstall the shield plate later.

2. Turn the card over so that the

component side is facing down, and
insert it in the optional interface slot.
Push gently until the card is firmly
seated in the expansion slot inside the
optional interface slot.

3. Tighten the retaining screws and

reconnect the scanner’s cables.

Now you’re ready to connect the scanner to your computer. See the Start Here sheet
for instructions.

Static electricity can damage electronic components like the IEEE 1394
FireWire scanner interface card. To discharge static electricity, touch
the scanner’s metal frame before handling the card.
