Note
: You must install the scanner software
before
connecting the
scanner to your computer. Otherwise, the correct driver software for
your scanner will not be installed and it may not work properly.
To install the scanner software:
1. Start Microsoft Windows 98 or Microsoft 2000 and make sure that
no other applications are running.
2. Insert the CD into your computer’s CD-ROM drive. The CD
automatically starts.
: If the CD does not automatically start, make sure the CD drive’s
Note
door is completely shut. If the CD still doesn’t start, click the Windows
icon that shows the drives on your computer. (Usually, the icon is
named My Computer.) The window shows the drives available on your
computer. Double-click the icon for your CD-ROM drive to see the list
of files on the CD. Double-click the file named START32.EXE. The
CD starts.
3. Follow the instructions on the screen to install the scanner software
on your computer.
When you are finished installing the software, a message on the
screen instructs you to connect the scanner to the computer.
4. Do not remove the CD from the computer yet. Later, after Windows
98 or Windows 2000 finds the scanner, you can install the other
applications on the CD.
