STEP 3: CHECKING OUT YOUR SCANNER
The PhotoPort 7700 scanner software adds the scanner icon to the
Windows taskbar (at the bottom right corner of the computer scr een). If
the scanner is properly connected, the scanner icon looks like the one in
this figure.
Scanner Icon
If the icon has a red X through it, the scanner is not pr operly connected.
See the section, “If the Scanner Is Not Properly Connected” on page 10
for the steps to fix the problem.
STEP 3: CHECKING OUT YOUR SCANNER 10
To check the status of the scanner:
1. Place the mouse pointer on the scanner icon in the Windows
taskbar.
2. Right-click the icon. The shortcut menu appears.
3. Choose About from the shortcut menu.
A dialog box confirms that the scanner is properly connected.
4. Click OK to close the dialog box.
That’s it. Your scanner is ready to scan.
IF THE SCANNER IS NOT PROPERLY CONNECTED
If the scanner icon on the Windo ws taskbar has a red “X” through it, the
scanner is not properly connected.
Check for one of these possible problems:
11 VISIONEER PHOTOPORT 7700 USB SCANNER INSTALLATION GUIDE
• 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 power light on? If the light does not come on, plug
the power adapter into another electrical outlet.
• Is the scanner’s locking tab in the locked position? Slide the
locking tab to the unlocked position. If you tried to scan with the
scanner locked, you must restart your computer after unlocking the
scanner.
• Did you restart the computer after installing the software? If you
didn’t r estart the computer, it may not have loaded all of the software
files. Try restarting your computer.
Please see the Readme file in the P aperPort directory on your computer’s
hard drive. The Readme file contains additional information that may
help you diagnose problems connecting the scanner.
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.
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.
STEP 3: CHECKING OUT YOUR SCANNER 12
If you try all the troubleshooting procedures described abo v e 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 technical support card
that you received with your scanner for technical assistance telephone
numbers. Also visit our web site at www.visioneer.com for additional
technical information.
RENAMING NETWORK DRIVES
Y our P hotoP ort 7700 scanner software r equires two hard drive letters for
the scanner’s two digital memory card slots. The software uses the next
drive letter following your computer’s hard drives. For example, if your
computer’s last hard drive is D:\, the first scanner slot hard drive name
will be E:\. However, network drive assignments typically start at F:\
which often leads to a conflict between the slot names and the network
drive names. To remedy this problem, you need to rename the network
drives to begin with another letter.
To rename the network drives for a Novell network:
1. On the Windows Desktop, right-click the appropriate icon:
■ Windows 98—Network Neighborhood
■ Windows Me—My Network Places
The pop-up menu appears.
2. Choose Properties.
3. Double-click Client for NetWare Networks.
4. Select an appropriate drive letter for the “First network drive.”
5. Click OK to close the dialog boxes.
Note: If you have trouble seeing the scanner’s drive names, or simply
want to rename them manually, see “Setting PhotoPort Preferences”
on page 31.

Scanning
THREE WAYS TO SCAN PAPER ITEMS
You can scan paper items by pressing a OneTouch button, b y clicking a

• Scan from the Screen
Click the scanner icon on the Windo ws taskbar. A panel representing
the scanner buttons appears. Click a button on the panel.
• Scan from the PaperPort Software (or Other Twain Software)
Start the PaperPort software, then click the Twain icon on the
PaperPort Command Bar. You can also scan from other Twain
software. See “Scanning from the PaperPort Software” on page 47.
SCANNING PAPER ITEMS WITH THE ONETOUCH BUTTONS 14
SCANNING PAPER ITEMS WITH THE ONETOUCH BUTTONS
Pressing a scanner button scans the item, and then sends the image
either to the printer or to a software application on your computer.
To scan by pressing a OneTouch button on the scanner:
1. Place an item to scan on the glass, face down, and align the edge of
the item with the arrow marker at the upper left corner of the glass.
2. Close the document cover and press one of the OneTouch buttons.
The OneTouch buttons are configured for the following tasks:
Send images to
PhotoWorks.com
Email Fax Copy/Print
Scan
See the section “About the OneTouch Buttons” on page 16 for
details about the configuration of each button.
15 VISIONEER PHOTOPORT 7700 USB SCANNER INSTALLATION GUIDE
When scanning is complete, a status message shows the destination
application for the image. For example, if you pressed the Fax
button, the destination application is your fax software. In the
sample below, the scanned image appears on the PaperPort
Desktop.
During scanning, the scan progress window shows a small copy of
the image, as illustrated by this example:
When the scan is complete, the scanned image appears in the
destination software, in this case the PaperPort desktop.
SCANNING PAPER ITEMS WITH THE ONETOUCH BUTTONS 16
ABOUT THE ONETOUCH BUTTONS
The OneTouch buttons are pr econfigur ed for typical scanning tasks. To
change the settings for the buttons, see “About the Configuration
Dialog Box” on page 36.
The following table lists the OneTouch buttons’ preconfigured settings:
Button Function Preconfigured Settings
Scan Scans the item as an 8.5" x 11" color page
and displays it in PaperPort
Copy/Print P rints the scanned item in black and white
on your printer/copier at the printer/
copier’s default resolution
Fax Displays the scanned item in your fax
software as a black and white image at the
default resolution of your fax software or
modem
Email Scans the item as a color photo and
attaches it to a new email message in your
email application
Camera Starts the PhotoWorks.com application so
you can select images to be printed by
PhotoWorks.com
Note: If a button is not preconfigured, the Configuration dialog box
appears when you press that button so you can configur e it manually.
For example, if your computer does not have fax software installed,
the fax button cannot be preconfigured.
17 VISIONEER PHOTOPORT 7700 USB SCANNER INSTALLATION GUIDE
SCANNING PAPER ITEMS FROM THE BUTTON PANEL ON
THE SCREEN
Scanning from the button panel on the screen is just like pressing a
scanner button, except you click the button on the screen. The scanner
scans the item, and then sends the image either to the printer, or to a
software application on your computer. This method of scanning is
especially helpful if the scanner is not located close to your computer.
To scan from the screen:
1. Place an item to scan on the glass, face down, close the document
cover, and click the scanner icon on the Windows taskbar.
The scanner button panel appears on the screen.
2. Click the button you want to use to scan.
The scanner starts scanning the item. When the scan is complete,
the scanned image appears in the destination application.
3. To close the button panel, click the scanner icon in the panel’s
upper left corner.
The icons on the buttons indicate the destination application for the
scanned image. For example, in the illustration above, the icon on the
email button is for the email application, MS Outlook. When y ou click
the email button, the item is scanned, and then MS Outlook opens. In
this case, the scanned image automatically becomes an attachment to
send with an email message.
A question mark icon on a button means your computer does not have
an application that corresponds to that button’s functions. For example,
if your computer does not have a fax application, the Fax button will
have a question mark icon on it.
TRANSFERRING IMAGES FROM DIGITAL MEMORY CARDS 18
TRANSFERRING IMAGES FROM DIGITAL MEMORY CARDS
Digital cameras save photographs on various types of removable
memory cards. Using the slots on the front of the PhotoPort 7700
scanner, you can transfer images directly into your computer from the
CompactFlash and SmartMedia cards without having to connect the
camera to the computer.
Note: Transferring images from the memory card with your
PhotoPort 7700 scanner does not erase the images from the card. If
you want to erase the images or store other files on the cards, see
“Using Digital Media as a Hard Drive” on page 22.
