STEP 3: CHECK OUT YOUR SCANNER
After installing the scanner and software, you will see a scanner icon on
the Windows taskbar (at the bottom right corner of the computer
screen). If the scanner is properly connected, the scanner icon looks like
the one pictured below.
Scanner Icon
If the icon has a red X through it, the scanner is not properly connected.
See the section, “If the Scanner Is Not Properly Connected” on page 11
for the steps to fix the problem.
To check the status of the scanner:
1. On the Windows taskbar, right-click the scanner icon.
The shortcut menu appears.
2. Select About from the shortcut menu.
A dialog box confirms the scanner is properly connected.
3. Click OK to close the dialog box. Your scanner is ready to scan.
STEP 3: CHECK OUT YOUR SCANNER 11
IF THE SCANNER IS NOT PROPERLY CONNECTED
If the scanner icon on the Windows taskbar has a red “X” through it,
the scanner is not properly connected.
Check for one of these possible problems:
• Is a cable loose or not plugged in securely? Inspect all cable
connections. Make sure all the cables are plugged in securely.
• Is the scanner’s status light on? If the status light does not come on,
check that the USB cable is connected properly to the scanner and
computer.
• Did you restart the computer after installing the software? If you
didn’t restart the computer, it may not have loaded all of the software
files. Try restarting your computer.
Please see the Readme file on the installation CD that you received with
your scanner. The Readme file contains additional information that
may help you diagnose problems connecting the scanner. Also see
“Troubleshooting” on page 56 for more information.
To connect the scanner:
1. After checking for all the above problems, right-click the scanner
icon with the red X over it.
The shortcut menu appears.
12 VISIONEER ONETOUCH 7300 USB SCANNER INSTALLATION GUIDE
2. Choose Connect from the shortcut menu.
The software finds the scanner and makes the connection. The
scanner icon will no longer have a red X through it, and you’re
ready to begin scanning.
If you try all the troubleshooting procedures described above and in the
Readme file, and the scanner icon still has a red X through it, you may
have a malfunctioning scanner. Please see the Visioneer Technical
Support Card that you received with your scanner. Also visit our Web
site at www.visioneer.com for additional technical information. You can
also receive software updates from the Web site.

with the scanner’s reference marks. For custom sizes, align the edge
of the item with the left side of the scanner glass.

When the scan is complete, the scanned image appears in the
destination application. In this example, the destination application
is the PaperPort desktop.
PRESSING A ONETOUCH BUTTON ON THE SCANNER 15
SCANNING PAGES IN A BOOK
Your OneTouch 7300 USB scanner has an innovative hinged lid so you
can lay books flat on the scanner glass to scan their pages.
To scan book pages:
1. Open the document cover and place the book on the glass.
2. Align the edges of the pages with the reference marks.
3. Close the document cover.
Notice how the hinge at the back of the document cover lifts up so
cover lays flat on the book.

You can also scan using the button panel on the computer’s screen,
or from PaperPort.

ABOUT THE ONETOUCH BUTTONS
The OneTouch buttons are preconfigured for typical scanning tasks. To
change button settings, see “Configuring the Buttons” on page 26.
The following table describes the preconfigured button settings:
Button Preconfigured Settings
Scan Scans the item as a color page and displays it in
PaperPort.
Custom Scans the item as a color photo and displays it in an
image processing application.
E-Mail Scans the item as a color photo and attaches it to a
new email message in your email application.
OCR Converts the item’s text to black and white word
processing text, and displays it in a word processing
application.
Copy Prints the scanned item in black and white on your
printer/copier at the printer/copier’s default
resolution.
Note: If a button is not preconfigured, it appears on the on-screen
button panel with a question mark on it. If you press that button or
click it on the panel, the Configuration dialog box opens so you can
configure the button manually. For example, if your computer does
not have email software installed, the E-Mail button is not
preconfigured during installation.
