Preparation and Initial Setup
1. Connect the mini end of the USB cable
(included with scanner) to the Mini USB
socket on the scanner.
2. Power on your computer, and then connect
the large end of the USB cable to a USB
port on your computer to start charging the
built-in battery of the scanner.
After the battery is fully charged,
disconnect the scanner from the computer.
NOTE
: It takes approximately 3 to 4
hours to fully charge the scanner’s
battery. See "Indicator Lights" on page 7
to identify the charging status.
3. Insert an unlocked (writable) memory card
into the memory card slot, or a USB flash
drive into the USB port on the scanner.
NOTE
• You can also use this scanner without a
memory card or USB storage device. The
scanner has a built-in 512MB memory.
• If a USB flash drive and a memory card
are both inserted, the scanner will take the
following priority when saving the scanned
images:
USB flash drive > Memory card > Built-in
memory
• The scanner only accepts memory cards
in FAT16 or FAT32 format. NTFS and
other file systems are not supported.
• See "Supported Memory Card Types" on
page 18 for all supported memory card
types.

Power on the Scanner
1. Press the Power button. The Power and
Status/Card indicators blink.
NOTE
: For more information on the
indicator lights, refer to "Indicator
Lights" on page 7.
2. Wait until the Power indicator stops
blinking and then goes off. The Status/Card
indicator will stay on steady, indicating that
the scanner is ready.
NOTE
: Do not insert any original into
the feeding slot when the Power
indicator is blinking; the original will
not be scanned.
Set the Scanning Resolution
The scanning resolution is measured in dpi (dots per inch). The
higher the dpi, the more details on the original will be captured by
the scanner and produce a higher quality scanned image. However, a
higher dpi will also result in a larger image size and occupy more
space on the memory card.
To change the scanning resolution, press and
release the Power button. The scanning
resolution changes by each press of the button,
and the color of the Status/Card indicator will
also change according to the resolution
selected:
• Green: 300dpi (normal mode, default setting)
• Orange: 600dpi (fine mode)

Using the Plastic Sheath
English
Always use the clear plastic sheath (included) when scanning photos
to ensure the best scanning results. The sheath helps eliminate the
possibility of de-focusing due to the uneven surface of curled
photos.
Curled photo
Fuzzy areas that result
from the uneven surface
of the curled photo
1. Insert the photo into
the plastic sheath as
shown.
Adjust the paper guide lever
Insert the
folded side
first
NOTE
:
• Keeping the original flat and level when feeding prevents
possible jamming.
• Keep originals free from finger prints, oil, dirt, and dust for
optimum scanned image quality.
• Remove photos from the plastic sheath after scanning to
prevent the sheath from sticking to the photos over time.
• If the plastic sheaths are not in use, store them in a safe place
and keep them protected from accumulating dust.
2. Adjust the paper guide
lever so that the plastic
sheath aligns against
the left side of the feed
slot, and then insert the
plastic sheath (with the
folded side first) into
the feed slot flat and
level as shown.
Page 16
Using the Scanner 13
Scan an Original
Align left
1. With the side to be scanned facing upward
and in correct orientation (refer to
"Orientation of the Original and Scanned
Image" on page 9), place one edge of the
original on the scanner and adjust the paper
guide slide so that the original aligns
against the left side of the feeding slot.
CAUTION
photos in humid environments
(humidity higher than 70% RH).
Otherwise the surface of the photo
will become sticky and cause the
scanner to jam.
: Do not scan glossy
2. Insert the original into the feeding slot. The
original will be fed through the slot and
scanned automatically. The Power indicator
blinks while scanning.
NOTE
: To prevent poor image quality,
reserve adequate space behind the
scanner for the photo to complete the
scan feeds.
3. When scanning is completed, the Power and
Status/Card indicator lights will keep
blinking momentarily, indicating that the
scanner is processing the image and storing
the file onto the memory card. Wait until
the indicator lights stop blinking before
inserting and scanning the next original.
CAUTION
Insert only one original at a time.
Insert the next original only when the
previous one is done. Otherwise the
scanner may malfunction.

NOTE:
• Always place the scanner on a flat surface for scanning. Do not
hold the scanner while scanning.
• Do not remove the memory card or USB flash drive (if
connected) while the indicators are blinking.
• This scanner is not guaranteed to compatible with all USB flash
drives on the market.
• A fully charged battery can sustain up to 100 scans of A4/Letter
size plain paper at 300dpi. This is a factory test value for your
reference, and actual battery performance may vary.
• This scanner only supports output images in JPEG (.jpg) format,
and the date/ time attribute will not be added.
• For more information on how this scanner stores the scanned
image files on the memory card, refer to "File naming and
storage rules" on page 18.
• If the memory space is near full (lower than 10MB), the Status/
Card indicator blinks (refer to "Indicator Lights" on page 7). Use
another card or delete some files on it if necessary.
4. To power down the scanner after all
originals are scanned, press and hold the
Power button for one second. The power
indicator will blink and then go off.
NOTE
: The scanner will automatically
power off if it is left idle for 5 minutes (if
not connected to a computer).

Calibrating the Scanner
If the scanned image looks fuzzy or there are strange stripes on it,
the scanner may need calibrating in order for the sensor to resume
its original precision. To calibrate the scanner:
1. Follow the instructions beginning on page 19 to clean the image
sensor, and then follow the instructions in "Preparation and
Initial Setup" on page 10 to prepare the scanner for scanning.
3. Gently slide the sensor cleaning
swab back and forth from one
end of the output slot to the other
five or six times consecutively.
NOTE
: Do not apply too
much force on the swab.
4. Remove the sensor cleaning
swab from the slot, and store it in
a safe place and protect it from
dust.
2. Insert the calibration card as
shown.
3. The scanner will scan the
pattern on the calibration card
and perform calibration to the
sensor inside automatically.
NOTE
: Make sure that
the calibration card is
inserted in the correct
direction and aligned
against the left side of
the feeding slot.
Otherwise the calibration
won’t work.

Care and Maintenance 21
Storing the Scanner
If the scanner will not be used for a prolonged period of time, follow
the instructions below to store the scanner for future use.
1. Disconnect the scanner from power supply.
2. Place the scanner and power adapter in a box or bag to keep them
from accumulation of dust.
3. Place it in a cool and dry place where inaccessible to small
