Connect the Scanner

After your software is installed, it’s time to get connected.

1 Remove the yellow tape from the back of the scanner.

2 Slide the transportation lock to the UNLOCK position.

Caution: Your scanner won’t work unless the transportation lock is in

the UNLOCK position. Also, you may damage the scanner if you leave

it on while it’s locked.

3 Connect the scanner to your computer. Use either the USB cable that

came with your scanner or a SCSI cable, if your computer has SCSI

support. Don’t connect both cables.

If you’re using USB...

Plug the square end of the USB cable into the scanner’s

USB port. Plug the flat end into any available USB port

on your computer or USB hub. Then go to step 4.

Note: Your scanner may not work correctly if you use a USB cable

other than the one supplied by EPSON, of if you connect your scanner

to a multi-level USB hub system.

STOP: Be sure to install your scanner software first

BEFORE you connect the scanner!

See your Start Here sheet for details.

If you’re using SCSI...

If you have another SCSI device that uses SCSI ID 2, turn the SCSI ID

switch on the back of the scanner to a new number. Do not use 0 or 7.

Unless your scanner is connected in the middle of a SCSI chain,

leave the terminator switch on the back of the scanner turned ON.

Squeeze the lock releases on your SCSI cable, and plug the cable into

either SCSI connector on the back of the scanner. Connect the pin end

of the cable to the SCSI port on your computer.

4 Plug one end of the scanner’s power cord into the AC inlet at the back

of the scanner, and the other end into a grounded electrical outlet.

5 Press the power button on the front of the scanner to turn it on.

The green READY light begins to flash. Wait for the flashing to stop.

6 If you have a USB connection, go to “Your First Scan” on the back of

this sheet.

If you have a SCSI connection, start the Add Hardware Wizard in the

Windows Control Panel and follow the on-screen instructions to let

Windows detect your scanner. Then continue with the instructions on

the back of this sheet to begin scanning.
