Step 3. If your scanner has a Transparency Adaptor, check
that the cable is plugged into the option port on the back of the
scanner.

PaperPort software’s features. Please see the CD to view or print
the guide.
Step 3: Checking out your scanner
The One Touch software adds the scanner icon to 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
in this figure.

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

1-6 4800/2400 Series Installation and User Guide
Please see the Readme file in the PaperPort directory on your
computer’s hard drive. The Readme file contains additional
information that may help you diagnose problems connecting the
scanner. Also see “Installation troubleshooting” on page 3-1 of this
guide for more information.
NOTE: The scanning lamp under the scanner’s glass needs to
warm up before you can scan. A status message lets you know
when the lamp is ready. The lamp then remains ready so you don’t
have to wait for it to warm up each time you want to scan. To
conserve electricity and prolong the life of the scanner, you can set
the length of time for the lamp to remain lit before powering down.
See “Setting preferences” on page 2-10.
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.
Figure 1-11 Reconnect the scanner
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 are ready to begin scanning.
If you try all the troubleshooting procedures described above, in the
Readme file, and the “Installation troubleshooting” on page 3-1 and
the scanner icon still has a red X through it, you may have a
malfunctioning scanner. Please see “Contacting technical support”
on page 3-5 for technical assistance telephone numbers. Also visit
our web site at www.xeroxscanners.com for additional technical
information.

2 Three ways to scan
You can scan paper items by pressing a One Touch button, by
clicking a button on the screen, or from the PaperPort software (or
other TWAIN software).
Scan with the scanner buttons
Press a button on the scanner’s front panel.
Figure 2-1 Press a scanner button
Scan from the screen
Click the scanner icon on the Windows taskbar. A panel
representing the scanner buttons appears. Click a button on
the panel.
Figure 2-2 Button panel
Scan from the PaperPort software (or other TWAIN software)
Start the PaperPort software, click the [Scan] icon on the
PaperPort command bar, and then click the [Scan] button on
the Scan pane. You can also scan from other TWAIN software.
Scanning by pressing the One Touch buttons
Pressing a scanner button scans the item, and then sends the
image either to the printer, or to a software application—called the
destination application—on your computer.
To scan by pressing a button on the scanner:
Three ways to scan
2-2 4800/2400 Series Installation and User Guide
1. Place an item to scan on the glass, face down, and align the
edge of the item with the arrow marker at the lower left corner
of the glass.
2. Close the lid and press one of the scanner buttons.
The scanner starts scanning the item. Messages just above
the Windows taskbar shows the status of the scanning. During
scanning, the scan progress window shows a small copy of the
image, as illustrated by this example:
Figure 2-3 Scan progress and image in PaperPort
When the scan is complete, the scanned image appears in the
destination software. In this example, the destination software
is the PaperPort Desktop.
About the One Touch buttons
The One Touch buttons are preconfigured for typical scanning
tasks. To change the settings for the buttons, see “About the
Configuration dialog box” on page 2-4.
Figure 2-4 Scanner buttons
The following table lists the scanner’s preconfigured settings:
Button Function Preconfigured Settings
Scan Scans the item as a color page and displays in
in PaperPort.
Email 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.
Three ways to scan
4800/2400 Series Installation and User Guide 2-3
NOTE: If a button is not preconfigured, the Configuration dialog
box appears when you press that button so you can configure it
manually. For example, if your computer does not have email
software installed, the Email button cannot be configured.
Scanning 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 destination 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 lid,
and then click the scanner icon on the Windows taskbar.
The scanner button panel appears on the screen.
Figure 2-5 Button panel
2. Click the button you want to use to scan.
The scanner starts scanning the item; the messages about the
scanning appear above the Windows taskbar; the progress
window shows the image as it is scanned. When the scan is
complete, the scanned image appears in the destination
application.
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 you
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.
Copy/
Print
Prints the scanned item in black and white on
your printer/copier at the printer/copier’s
default resolution.
Custom Scans the item as a color photo and displays it
in an image processing application.
