Installation
Before You Begin
Installation
Installation is a quick, four-step process:
1. Assemble the scanner
2. Install the software
3. Connect the power supply
4. Connect the USB cable and turn on the power
Please make sure of the following before you begin installation:
• The information in this guide may cover software not
provided with the scanner you purchased. Please
disregard any information about the software not
applicable to your scanner. Visit our web site at
www.xeroxscanners.com for the latest software updates
for your Xerox DocuMate 152 scanner.
• If your computer has AntiVirus or AntiSpyware software
running, you may encounter alerts or messages during
installation asking you to allow the installation to proceed.
Although the messages will differ based on the software
your computer is running, in each case you should allow
the installation to proceed if that option is available.
Alternatively, you can turn off the AntiVirus or
AntiSpyware software before inst alling your s canner , but if
you do, make sure to turn it back on again when
installation is finished.
• If you already have a scanner connected to your computer ,
it is recommended that you remove that scanner’s driver
program prior to installing your Xerox DocuMate 152
scanner. While in some cases you can configure your
computer to have another manufacturer’s scanner
operational on your computer in conjunction with the
Xerox DocuMate 152 scanner, we do not recommend this
configuration as you may lose some of the driver
functionality on one, or both of the units. You can remove
these programs from the Windows Add/Remove programs
list. Please refer to the user manual provided with your
other scanner hardware for instructions about removing
the driver and software for that unit.
• If your computer is running Windows Vista, you may see
the Vista User Access Control screen asking you to
confirm system changes. Click the Continue button to
allow the installation to proceed.

NOTE: If your computer is running Windows XP or Windows
Vista, Microsoft’ s Windows Image Acquisitio n (WIA) interface for
scanning is always available, regardless of your selection on this
window.
• Full Install (OneTouch and TWAIN)—This is the
recommended installation. It installs the One Touch 4.0
software which provides the necessary driver software for
the scanner. It also installs the scanning interface for the
TWAIN driver. Installing this option means that you can use
several different methods to scan, as explained in this User
Guide.
• TWAIN Only—The TWAIN driver is installed. The One
Touch 4.0 Monitor will not run and you cannot use the One
Touch features. You can use the TW AIN driver to scan from
applications with a TWAIN interface. You also will not be
able to scan with the buttons on the scanner.
NOTE: If you decide to change the scanner’s installed drivers
later on, you must first uninstall the drivers the scanner is
currently using. See the section “To Install Another Driver” on
page 113.
5. Click Next.
During installation you will see this window asking you to select
one of the images for the Color Space setting.
The Color S pace setting sets the gamma value for the scanner

the brightness of the midtones of colors. That setting can be
changed later on as you’re scanning.

USB
Step 4: Connect the USB Cable and Turn on the Power
The Xerox DocuMate 152 scanner connects to any available USB
port. Check your computer’s manual for USB port locations.
NOTE: Y ou can connect the scanner to your computer while the
computer is running.
1. Remove any protective tape from the USB cable.
2. Plug the USB cable into the USB port on the scanner then into
a USB port on the computer. Connection to a USB 2.0 High
Speed port provides optimum performance, however your
scanner will also connect to a USB 1.1 port.
The USB symbol, as seen in the above diagram, identifies the
location of the USB port on your computer. If the plug does not
attach easily , make sure that you are plugging it in correctly. Do
not force the plug into the connection.
You can also connect the scanner to a USB hub if the USB hub
has its own power supply already plugged into an electrical
outlet.
3. Turn on the power switch, located on the back of the scan ner to
the left of the power port.
14 DocuMate 152 Scanner User’s Guide
Installation
The status light comes on and flashes indicating that the
scanner is receiving power.
If you are using Windows XP Service Pack 2, and have
plugged the USB cable into a USB 1.1 port, an information
bubble may open explaining that “A HI-SPEED USB device is
plugged into a non-HI-SPEED USB hub”. Plug the USB cable
into a USB 2.0 port (if available) or just disregard the message.
If you leave it plugged into the USB 1.1 port, your scanner may
scan a bit slower than the 15 pages per minute, and 30 images
per minute available with a USB 2.0 port.
Your computer then recognizes that a scanner has been
plugged into the USB port and automatically loads the
appropriate software to run the scanner.
Do not proceed until you receive a message that your computer
has found the new hardware, or updated the driver datab ase. If
your computer is running Windows XP or Windows Vista, you
will see one of the following messages.
4. When you’re certain that the software has completely loaded,
return to the “Complete the installation by connecting your
hardware” window.

Scanning
If you selected the recommended Full Install option for your
scanner’s driver (see page 11), then you have several different
scanning options with your Xerox DocuMate 152 scanner. Each
method scans equally well, so use the one with appropriate options
for the item you are scanning.
The scanning methods with your Xerox DocuMate 152 scanner
are:
• Scanner Buttons—When you press either the Simplex or
Duplex button, documents are scanned using the scan settings
indicated by the LED number. The scanned images are then
sent to a software application (known as the Destination
Application) on your computer. See “Load and Scan
Documents” on page 23.
• One T ouch—Use this scan optio n when you want to scan from
the computer screen. Open the One Touch scan panel and
window, adjust the scan settings as needed, put the document
in the scanner , then click the icon on the One Touch panel. Also
use this One Touch method of scanning if you want to access
advanced features for Optical Character Recognition (OCR).
See “Scan from the One Touch Button Panel” on page 26.
• TWAIN Interface—This option uses your scanner’s TWAIN
interface to scan. Select scanning options before scanning, put
the document in the scanner, then click a button on the TWAIN
interface window . The PaperPort sof tware that you inst alled for
your scanner uses the TWAIN interface for scanning, b ut many
other programs use it too so you can scan from them, as well
as from PaperPort. See “Accessing the TWAIN Interface from
PaperPort” on page 84.
• Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) Interface—This option
uses the Microsoft Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) interface
to scan. Select scanning options before scanning, put the
document in the scanner, then click a button on the WIA
interface window. You can access the WIA interface from the
PaperPort software, or from other applications on your
computer. See “Scanning with the WIA Interface” on page 97.
The WIA interface is only available if your computer is running
Windows XP or Windows Vista.

Load and Scan Documents
When you press either the Simplex or Duplex button, documents
are scanned using the scan settings indicated by the LED number.
The scanned images are then sent to a software application
(known as the Destination Application) on your computer.
1. Adjust the paper guide for the width of paper, and make sure
the input and output trays are fully extended.
Scanning
NOTE: Always remove any staples or paper clips from
documents before inserting them into the scanner’s Automatic
Document Feeder. Staples and paper clips can jam the feed
mechanism and scratch the internal components. Also remove
any labels, stickers, or Post-It™ notes that may come off during
the scanning process and get stuck in the scanner. Misuse as
described here will void your scanner’s warranty.
2. Load the documents so the tops of the pages are inserted into
the Automatic Document Feeder.
For Simplex (one-sided) scans, load the documents face down.
Side 1 (the side of the page you want to scan) faces the paper
tray, and Side 2 faces outward.
For Duplex (two-sided) scans, the documents can be face up or
down because both sides are scanned.
