The CapShare Utility

The purpose of this document is to give users basic instructions on how to use the HP CapShare 920 Portable e-Copier with a Windows 2000 system.

Installing the HP CapShare Utility

You only need to install the utility if you are going to be using the serial interface. Infrared connections are not currently supported for use with the utility on any computer using the Windows 2000 operating system. However, you can use the automatic infrared support of Windows 2000 with the Wireless Link program that loads automatically on infrared capable machines. If you have an infrared adapter for your serial communications port, then check with the product’s manufacturer for instructions on how to install the device in Windows 2000 Professional.

Important Note

You must have Administrator privileges to install and use the HP CapShare Utility on a Windows 2000 Professional system.

You should have the most recent revision of the CapShare firmware installed. Please check the HP CapShare website for more information at http://www.capshare.hp.com on how to obtain the updated firmware.

To install the HP CapShare Utility simply put the CD-ROM into your computer’s CD-ROM drive and then follow the onscreen prompts until you get to the Communication Screen. If your computer has an active infrared port then infrared will be an option here, but you will need to select the serial connection since infrared connectivity is not supported for use with the HP CapShare Utility on Windows 2000 systems. Once you have selected serial and then clicked OK, then follow the rest of the prompts to finish installing the utility.

To install the CapShare-enhanced Pagis Pro 2.0 software you should check with ScanSoft for installation instructions. ScanSoft should be able to inform you of any known problems or special instructions for Windows 2000. In our testing, we found that the CapShareenhanced Pagis Pro 2.0 version doesn’t seem to have any problems as long as the user is transferring over the serial cable. If the transfers are over IR, then some problems were experienced and the Wireless Link applet intercepted the transfers.

As of March 2000 ScanSoft has noted problems with version 3.0 in Windows 2000. So, if you have upgraded to version 3.0 of Pagis Pro, then check with ScanSoft for any product updates that will resolve these issues.
