What’ s Ne w with

and

The CD included in this package contains updated versions of Nikon
Control Windows and Nikon Scan Windows. Most of the changes made to
these programs since the release of the previous versions (Nikon Scan
Windows 1.4 and Nikon Control Windows 2.1) have been in the form of

improvements to drivers and have not had significant effect on the look of
the program as described in the manuals, which remain unchanged from the
previous release. The program which installs the software to the
computer’s hard disk has however been entirely revised. These changes are
described in the present booklet, which replaces pages 3–10 of the Nikon
Control Windows User’s Manual.

System Requirements

To run Nikon Control Windows 2.2 or Nikon Scan 1.6, you will need an
IBM PC/AT or compatible computer with a i386 microprocessor or better,
running Windows® 95 or Windows NT® Version 4.0 or later. The current

versions of Nikon Scan and Nikon Control cannot be used under Win­dows 3.1 or Windows for Workgroups 3.11. Operation cannot be guaran-

teed under versions of Windows NT earlier than 4.0. This information
supersedes that given in the manuals, which were written for Windows 3.1.
The operating procedures for Nikon Control and the Nikon Scan TWAIN
driver however remain unchanged from those given in the manuals.

In addition to the other system requirements given on page 2 of the Nikon
Control Windows User’s Manual, a CD-ROM drive will be needed to run
the installer program.

Software Installation

Before proceeding with installation, check to be sure that there is enough
free space on the computer’s hard disk to install Nikon Control and the
drivers needed by Nikon Scan (a minimum of one megabyte of hard-disk
space is required). If there are any Nikon scanners connected in the SCSI
