2 Introduction
Important Safety Instructions
Read all these instructions and save them for later reference. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the scanner.
Unplug the scanner before cleaning. Clean with a damp cloth only. Do not spill liquid on the scanner.
Do not place the scanner on an unstable surface, or near a radiator or heat source.
Use only the type of power source indicated on the scanner's label.
Connect all equipment to properly grounded power outlets. Avoid using outlets on the same circuit as photocopiers or air control systems that regularly switch on and off.
Do not let the power cord become damaged or frayed.
If you use an extension cord with the scanner, make sure the total ampere rating of the devices plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the cord's ampere rating. Also, make sure the total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet's ampere rating.
Except as specifically explained in this User's Guide, do not attempt to service the scanner yourself.
Unplug the scanner and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
If the power cord or plug is damaged; if liquid has entered the scanner; if the scanner has been dropped or the case damaged; if the scanner does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. (Do not adjust controls that are not covered by the operating instructions.)
If you plan to use the scanner in Germany, observe the following:
Introduction 3
To provide adequate short-circuit protection and overcurrent protection for this scanner, the building installation must be protected by a 16 Amp circuit breaker.
Note for German-speaking users:
Bei Anschluß des Scanners an die Stromversorgung muß sichergestellt werden, daß die Gebäudeinstallation mit einem 16 A- Überstromschalter abgesichert ist.

1-4 Setting Up the Scanner
Choosing a Place for the Scanner
1
Follow the guidelines below when selecting a location for your scanner:
Place the scanner on a flat, stable surface. The scanner will not operate properly if it is on an angle.
Place the scanner close enough to the computer for the interface cable to reach it easily.
Place the scanner near a wall outlet where the power cord can be easily unplugged.
Note for French-speaking users:
Placez le scanner près d’une prise de courant où la fiche peut-être débranchée facilement.
Allow space behind the scanner for the cables, and space above the scanner so that you can fully raise the document cover.

*When document cover is closed.
Keep the scanner away from high temperatures, humidity and excessive dirt or dust. Also avoid using or storing the scanner in places subject to rapid changes of temperature and humidity.
Keep the scanner away from direct sunlight and strong light sources.
Avoid places subject to shocks and vibrations.
1-6 Setting Up the Scanner
Installing a SCSI Interface Board (Windows Only)
1
For GT-7000 or GT-7000 PHOTO model Users only.
Unless your PC already has a SCSI board installed, you need to install a SCSI board and SCSI software before installing the scanner driver and software applications.
If you have a Macintosh that has a SCSI interface or if you already have a SCSI board installed in your PC, go to the next section.
Note:
For additional information, see the installation guide that comes with your SCSI board.
1.Turn off the computer and any peripheral devices. Unplug any power cords, then disconnect all cables from the back panel of your computer.
2.Remove the cover from your computer.
wCaution:
Static electricity can damage electronic components. Discharge static electricity by touching the metal frame of your computer before handling the interface board or any of the computer’s circuit boards.
3.Insert the interface board into an appropriate expansion slot, then secure it with the retaining screw.
4.Replace the computer cover and reconnect all cables.
Setting Up the Scanner 1-7
Releasing the Transportation Lock
Before connecting the scanner to a power source, you must release the transportation lock.
1.Place the scanner on a flat, stable surface with the back facing you.
2.Turn the transportation lock on the right side to the unlocked position using a coin or similar object, as shown below.
Note:
When you cannot turn the transportation lock because of excessive resistance, turn the scanner on, then, after the operate light starts flashing red, turn the scanner off, and try again. See the next section to turn on the scanner.
Return the transportation lock to the locked position when transporting the scanner.
1-8 Setting Up the Scanner
Plugging in the Scanner
1
1.Make sure that the scanner is turned off. The scanner is off when the P operate button is not pushed in beyond the surface of the front panel.
2.If the power cord is not attached to the scanner, connect it to the AC inlet on the back of the scanner, and plug the other end into a properly grounded electrical outlet.
cCaution:
It is not possible to change the scanner's voltage. If the label on the back of the scanner does not show the correct voltage for your country, contact your dealer. Do not plug in the power cord.
Setting Up the Scanner 1-9
Initialization
Before connecting the scanner to your computer, follow the steps below to make sure that the scanner is operating properly.
1.Open the document cover so you can see the operation of the scanner during initialization (startup).
2.Turn on the scanner by pressing the P operate button. The operate light starts flashing.
3.Make sure the fluorescent lamp on the carriage flashes, and the carriage moves slightly.
4.The operate light stays on, meaning the scanner has completed initialization.
5.Turn off the scanner.
If the scanner does not work as described, make sure the power cord is firmly plugged in and that you have released the transportation lock, then try again.
cCaution:
Whenever you turn off the scanner, wait at least 10 seconds before turning it back on. Rapidly turning the scanner on and off can damage the scanner.
1-10 Setting Up the Scanner
Connecting the Scanner (SCSI) to Your Computer
1
For instructions on connecting your SCSI model scanner to your computer, read this section.
For PC users:
Unless your PC already has a SCSI board installed, you need to install one, along with SCSI driver software. Install the SCSI board according to the directions included with it. Also see “Installing a SCSI Interface Board” on page 1-7.
If your PC has a SCSI board up and running, connect the scanner as described in the next section.
Note:
You will need to install the SCSI driver that is normally included with Windows 95, 98, or NT (see your system documentation for instructions), or the driver described in the SCSI board installation documentation.
For Macintosh users:
Conventional Macintosh computers have built-in SCSI ports; therefore you do not need to install a SCSI board on a Macintosh. Follow the directions below to connect your scanner and computer.
Setting Up the Scanner 1-11
Understanding SCSI connections
Read the following sections to determine how to set up your SCSI devices and whether you need any optional SCSI cables.
Daisy Chain
The SCSI interface allows you to connect up to seven devices (such as a scanner, hard disk, CD-ROM, and so on) to the computer, in what is called a “daisy chain” arrangement. Only the first SCSI device in a daisy chain is connected to the computer; each of the other devices is connected to another SCSI device.
SCSI Cables
You may need to purchase SCSI cables before setting up your SCSI daisy chain. Be sure the SCSI cable connectors are suitable for your hardware, depending on the maker of your SCSI device and SCSI interface board.
SCSI ID and terminator
Each device has a SCSI ID number: the computer is usually number 7, and each of the other devices must have a different number between 0 and 6. Also, the first device and the last device in the chain (not including the computer) must have a terminator. No other device can have a terminator, or if a terminator does exist, it must be turned off or removed.
