Hardware Requirements

This scanner connects to your computer through the Universal Serial Bus (USB) which supports hot Plug and Play. To determine whether your computer is USB-capable, you must check the rear of your PC to locate a USB jack that looks the same as the one pictured below. Note that on some computers, the USB port at the rear of the computer may be occupied and additional ports may be found on the monitor or keyboard. If you are having trouble in locating the USB port on your computer, please refer to the hardware manual that came with your computer.

Upon examination, you should find one or two rectangular USB ports, which usually appear as shown below.

If you don't find such USB ports on your computer, then you need to purchase a certified USB interface card to add USB capabilities to your computer.

Chapter II. Usage and Maintenance

Operating the Scanner

Your scanner accepts documents as small as business cards and as large as letter-sized documents. However, some software programs have limitations as to the information they can handle. The capacity of the computer's memory and free space on your hard drive can also limit the physical size of the document that you scan.

There are two different ways to operate the scanner:

1. From within an image-editing program that can acquire images from the scanner.
2. By using the Genius Scan Manager program that is automatically installed as your scanner software.

Your scanner needs to be driven by some type of software program. Since all documents or images (whether text or pictures) that are acquired from the scanner are treated by your computer as images, most scanning will probably be done from an image-editing program where you can view, edit, save and output the scanned images. An image-editing program has been bundled with your scanner on the included Setup/Application CD-ROM. It will allow you to alter and correct any scanned images by using a variety of filters, tools and effects.

What about scanning text documents and editing them in a word processor? This is the role of Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software. OCR software converts the image files that are created from scanning text documents into text files that can be viewed, edited and saved by word processors. An OCR program has also been bundled on the included Setup/Application CD-ROM, and if you wish to use the scanner in this way you should install the OCR software that is included.

Genius Scan Manager program is a program that allows you to conveniently scan images and text without the need to work directly within any image-editing application (i.e. Presto! ImageFolio). Genius Scan Manager program also includes features to allow you to use your scanner as fax⁶ and copy machines⁷. Refer to Chapter III of this User's Guide for details about how to use this Scan Manager program with your scanner buttons.

The following test procedure checks to see if the scanner is properly functioning with your computer and the scanning program. Before testing your scanner, check to make sure that all connections are securely fastened.

To properly test your scanner, please perform the following steps:

1. Open the scanner's document cover and place a picture onto the scanner glass headfirst and face-down.

1. Gently close the document cover.
2. Next, open the scanner's image-editing program. Click on the Windows START button and then PROGRAMS, PRESTO! IMAGEFOLIO, and then PRESTO! IMAGEFOLIO.
3. When Presto! ImageFolio opens, click on FILE and then SELECT SOURCE. In the window that opens, choose the model name of the scanner you have installed. Click on the SELECT button to close the window. This procedure allows Presto! ImageFolio to gain access to the scanner.
4. Within Presto! ImageFolio, click on FILE, ACQUIRE and then choose ACQUIRE.
5. The Genius TWAIN window will open.
6. If an image appears on your screen, your scanner is working properly. If the image doesn't appear to your liking, you might need to adjust some settings in the Genius TWAIN window. To learn how to adjust scanner settings, please refer to the Genius Help by clicking the Help button in the Genius TWAIN window.

Genius scanner provides two different ways for scanning:

From "SCAN" Hotkey --

1. Open the document cover. Place a picture headfirst and face down onto the scanner glass and close the document cover.
2. Press the "Scan" hot key button on the scanner.

4. When you complete the scanning task, click the CLOSE button to close the Genius TWAIN window, and you may review the scanned image in Presto! ImageFolio software.

Scanner Utility Program

The Scanner Utility Program can help you get your new scanner up and running. In addition, it contains a number of other features to help you tailor and control the scanner.

The Scanner Utility also allows you to define the exact position on the scanning glass where scanning will begin. The scanner was tuned to its optimal working condition at factory, but some refinement of the initial scanning position may still be necessary.

Calibrating the Scanner

Calibrate the scanner if colors appear in areas that should be white, vertical lines appear in the preview image, or colors of the preview image and the original vary a lot. This allows you to adjust and compensate for variations which can occur in the optical component over time by its nature.

To do this, please run the Scanner Utility program as described below:

1. Click on the Windows START button, then choose PROGRAMS, COLORPAGE-XXXX (your scanner model name) and then SCANNER UTILITY.
2. Click on the CALIBRATE button to start this calibration process to produce more accurate or desirable output.

Aligning the Scanner

In most cases, the scanner doesn't need to be aligned but there are instances when the alignment might be required. You need to align the scanner only if parts of the scanned document are missing from any of its edges. For example, the heading of a document might be missing from the top edge after the document has been scanned.

To align the scanner, follow the steps below:

1. Place a photograph on the top right side of the scanner glass (near the back of the scanner). Please note that only part of the photograph will be scanned.

1. Click on the SCAN button. Part of the photograph will be displayed in the ALIGNMENT window.

2. Click on the ALIGN POSITION buttons until the top left corner of the scanned photograph aligns with the top left corner of the preview window.

3. Click on the check mark button when the alignment has been completed.

Maintenance

To keep your scanner working smoothly, take a moment to review the following maintenance tips.

Caution

• Avoid using the scanner in a dusty environment. When it is not in use, keep the scanner covered. Dust particles and other foreign objects may damage the unit.
• Do not attempt to disassemble the scanner. There is danger of an electrical shock and opening your scanner will void your warranty.

• Do not subject the scanner to excessive vibration. It may damage the internal components.

• Be sure not to bump or knock the scanner glass as it is fragile and could break.

• Clean the scanner glass by lightly spraying a non-abrasive glass cleaner onto a soft lint-free cloth. Then, wipe the glass thoroughly with the cloth. DO NOT SPRAY CLEANER DIRECTLY ONTO THE SCANNER GLASS. Excess liquid residue may fog or damage the scanner.
• Your scanner operates best in temperatures between 10^ to 40^ ( 50^ to 104^ ).
