About SnapScan

In this Owner’s Guide, the name SnapScan is used for the SnapScan e20 (unless specified otherwise).
The SnapScan is a one pass flatbed color scanner with a resolution of 600 x 1200 ppi equipped with a cold cathode lamp. It is based on CCD (Charge-Coupled Device) scanning technology. With the SnapScan, you can scan line-art, gray-scale and color reflective originals up to A4 format.
The scanned data is transferred through the computer’s USB (Universal Serial Bus) port. The USB technology makes it easy to install multiple peripherals to your computer. USB eliminates any need to turn off or restart the computer when attaching a new peripheral.
SnapScan is a scanner that captures and converts reflective originals (for example pictures, text) into electronic data that can be used in computer applications. It offers high-resolution image capturing and is an ideal tool in making presentations come to life.
SnapScan supports multiple scanning modes and includes scanner software to get you started right away. With its powerful and easy-to-use scanner driver software, SnapScan gives you easy access to high-quality color scans. The scanner driver software gives you a number of additional features to create special effects or to reproduce even the most difficult originals.
The document cover is adjustable: when you put a thick original (like a book or a magazine) on the reflective glass plate, the document cover adapts to the thickness of the original.

Environmental Requirements

Place the scanner on a horizontal, flat surface.
To ensure proper ventilation, allow a minimum of 10 cm (4 inches) free space around each
side of the scanner.
Make sure that no vibrations or shocks occur.
Make sure that the area is free of dust.
Avoid any contact with water. Do not use your scanner near water or in a damp environment.
Your SnapScan is designed to perform at best when the environmental humidity is between
20% and 85%. Avoid environments where humidity fluctuations might occur.
Your SnapScan is designed to perform at best when the environmental temperature is
between 10 °C (+ 50 degrees Fahrenheit) and 40 °C (+104 degrees Fahrenheit). Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and heating devices.

Precautions

For your own safety and that of your equipment, respect conscientiously the Environmental
Requirements and always take the following precautions:
Check frequently whether there is no overheating of the AC adapter.
If you do not use your scanner for some time, pull the AC adapter cable out of the power
supply socket.
Handle your SnapScan with care: the glass plate is fragile. There is no warranty on breaking
the glass plate and your dealer is not liable for consequential damages.
Disconnect the AC adapter when you want to clean the scanner housing or the glass plate and
when the scanner needs servicing or repairing.
Do not open the scanner housing as it contains high-voltage areas and sensitive components.
Every repair should be carried out by your dealer.
Do not leave originals on the reflective glass plate for excessive periods of time. The warmth of
the scanner may cause them to deteriorate.
For safety reasons, never use extension cables for the AC adapter.
Caution: For safety reasons, besides the personal maintenance mentioned in this Owner's Guide,
do not try to remove any mechanical parts or any electronic components from your scanner. If your scanner needs service, our dealer and service offices are available to help you.

Cleaning your Scanner

Cleaning the glass plate regularly, ensures that dirt or smudges do not reduce the quality of
your scanned images.
Before cleaning, disconnect the AC adapter from your scanner.
Use a soft damp cloth and a mild detergent to clean the surface of the glass plate. If you use
alcohol to clean the glass plate, make sure that you do not touch the plastic elements of the scanner.
Avoid using sprays directly onto the glass plate as this may cause the liquid to penetrate the
seams around the glass and contaminate the mirrors and lenses inside the scanner.
Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.

If the scanner driver cannot find the scanner, a message appears telling you that no scanner is connected.
Check if the scanner is connected with the USB cable to your computer and that the AC
adapter is plugged in. It can always happen that a USB port is damaged, therefore try the other USB port of your computer.
Open the Apple System Profiler that you find under the
Volumes’ (minimum version 8.5). Here you can check if the USB device is found. If USB is not present in the list of ‘Devices and Volumes’, please check the hardware (cable, USB ports, ...).

Windows 98 fails to detect the scanner when you connect it for the first time (PC ONLY).

Check if the scanner is connected with the USB cable to your computer and that the AC
adapter is plugged in. It can always happen that a USB port is damaged, therefore try the other USB port of your computer.
Check if the Device Manager finds the USB controller. To check if the USB controller is
present in the Device Manager, click with the right mouse button on the icon My Computer and select Properties from the menu that pops up. Select the Device Manager tab from the System Properties dialog box.
If the USB controller ( ) is present in the Device Manager, carry out the scanner
installation procedure exactly as described in this manual.
If the USB controller is not present in the Device Manager, carry out the following
instructions:
1 Restart your computer.
2 Enable the USB controller in the BIOS settings.
Caution: Changing your computer’s BIOS settings is at your own risk! It should be
done by system administrators and experienced users only. If you are not familiar with these tasks, ask your computer dealer to do this for you.
You typically do this by pressing a key combination during the startup of your PC. Consult your computer manual for more information.
3 Exit and save the changes you made.
Your computer is rebooted automatically.
Check again if the Universal serial bus controller is present in the Device Manager.
If the Universal serial bus controller ( ) is present in the Device Manager, carry out the
scanner installation procedure exactly as described in this manual.
If the Universal serial bus controller is still not present in the Device Manager, carry out
the following instructions:
1 Click the Start button.
2 Select Settings.
3 Select Control Panel.
4 Double-click on the Add New Hardware icon.
5 Attentively follow the instructions that appear on your screen.
The Universal Serial Bus controller should now be present in the Device Manager. Carry out the scanner installation procedure exactly as described in this manual.

An OEM Windows 98 system was already installed when purchasing your computer (PC ONLY).

When you encounter problems during the installation procedure on a PC with a pre-installed Windows 98 system, please contact your PC dealer.

The e-mail function is not working (PC ONLY).

ScanWise PC uses the default MAPI (Microsoft Messaging API) client as e-mail destination. This means you need a MAPI compatible e-mail client and it also has to be configured correctly. If ScanWise cannot find such a destination, the e-mail destination will NOT be visible in the destination list.
Examples of MAPI compatible clients: Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express, Netscape Messenger, Eudora Pro. Example of a non MAPI compatible client: Compuserve for Windows.
Some configuration examples:
!
If you are using MS Outlook Express v4.x and it does not show up in the ScanWise destination
list, choose Options in the Tools menu in Outlook Express and make sure that the following items are checked:
"
Make Outlook Express my default e-mail program.
"
Make Outlook Express my default Simple MAPI client.
This should solve the problem.
!
If you are using MS Outlook Express v5, choose Tools, General in the Tools menu in MS
Outlook Express. If Outlook is not the default e-mail client, click the ‘Make default’ button.
!
You can also choose Internet Options, Programs in the Control Panel and indicate your e-mail
client there.

Your problem is not solved.

For support issues, go to http://support.agfa.com or consult the Support file in the documentation folder on the ScanWise CD-Rom.
