Condition Suggested solutions

work.

scanned face down on the scanner glass.

to hold the document you want to scan. Try
the Prescan function to see if that works.
Try lowering the scan resolution rate.
Ch
eck that the machine cable is connected
properly.
Make sure that th
e machine cable is not
defective. Switch the cable with a known
good cable. If necessary, replace the cable.
Ch
eck that the scanner is configured
correctly. Check scan setting in the
SmarThru or the application you want to use

sent to the correct port (for example,
USB001).
The unit scans very
slo
wly.
Check if the machine is printing received
data. If so, scan the document after the
received data has been printed.
Graphics are scanned more slowly than text.
Co
mmunication speed slows in scan mode
because of the large amount of memory
required to analyze and reproduce the
scanned image. Set your computer to the
ECP printer mode through BIOS setting. It
will help to increase the speed. For details
about how to set BIOS, refer to your
computer user’s guide.
