CHECKING OUT YOUR SCANNER 15
To check the status of the scanner:
1. Place the mouse pointer on the scanner icon in the Windows
taskbar.
2. Right-click the icon. The shortcut menu appears.
3. Choose About from the shortcut menu.
A dialog box confirms that the scanner is properly connected.
4. Click OK to close the dialog box.
That’s it. Your scanner is ready to scan.
See “Scanning by Pressing the OneTouch Buttons” on page 19.
Note: The scanning lamp under the scanner’s glass needs to warm up
before you can scan. A status message lets you know when the lamp is
ready. The lamp then remains ready so you don’t have to wait for it to
warm up each time you want to scan. To conserve electricity and
prolong the life of the scanner, you can set the length of time for the
lamp to remain lit before powering down. See “Setting Preferences”
on page 32.
