test scanner hardware

If you think the scanner has a hardware problem, verify that the cables are firmly
connected to the scanner, the computer, and the power source. If the cables are
correctly connected, test the scanner using this procedure.

1

Disconnect the combination USB and power cable from the scanner.

2

Reconnect the combination USB and power cable to the scanner.

The carriage on the scanner will move forward and backward approximately 25
mm (1 inch), and the lamp will turn on.

If the carriage does not move and the scanner lamp does not turn on, a problem
exists with the scanner hardware. See product support on page 23.
