CHAPTER 1 PREFACE

This manual describes how to operate the M3097E+ and M3097G+ image scanners. The M3097E+ now supports a document counter function. The M3097G+ similarly supports a new document counter and also features an 8-bit grayscale function. An image scanner optically reads image information from a document and outputs the information to the host system. The differences between the M3097E+ and the M3097G+ image scanners are listed in table 1.1.

2.3.1 Indicators

The meaning of each indicator is as follows:
Power indicator (Green):
Lights to indicate the power is on.
Ready (for reading) indicator (Green) (M3097E+):
Lights when the image scanner becomes ready to read a docu­ment in the manual mode. This indicator turns off when the start button is pressed to read a document.
Read (reading in progress) indicator (Green) (M3097G+):
Lights to indicate reading is in progress.
Check (device check) indicator (Yellow):
Lights if a device error occurs which may result in a service call. An error message is displayed on the liquid crystal display screen. This indicator blinks if a document is jammed in the automatic document feeder. This indicator turns off when the jammed documents are removed from the feeder and the feeder is closed.
2.3.2 Buttons and liquid crystal display screen (M3097E+)
The function of each button is as follows:
Start button:
Read operation can be started in either manual or automatic mode. To start reading in manual mode, press this button while the ready indicator is lit.
• Manual mode: Reading is started by the start button.
• Automatic mode: Reading is started by a command from
the host system.
Stop button:
This button is effective regardless of whether the scanner is in manual or automatic mode. Press this button to stop the read operation. When this button is pressed, the image scanner operates as follows:
• Reading in flatbed mode: Reading is immediately stopped.
• Reading in ADF mode: Reading is immediately stopped
and documents being fed are ejected to the stacker. After cleaning a jam, press the stop button to clear the “Paper Jam” message displayed on the screen. The ready screen will then be displayed to indicate that the scanner is ready to read.

The ADF, size, density, resolution, landscape, half-tone, document, and mode 1 and 2 buttons described below are effective unless other­wise specified by the host system.
Automatic document feeder (ADF) button:
Selects whether to feed documents automatically by ADF or manually on the flatbed. When this button is pressed, the lower line is displayed as shown in Screen 1. Each time this button is pressed, “FB” or “ADF” starts blinking in turn, and the read operation status displayed in the upper line changes accord­ingly.
