Problems?
The orange and green LEDs on the front of the
scanner indicate the status of the scanner. On
power up, you should see the following:
First, make sure that you have followed installation
steps 1 through 4. If your problem is listed here, try
the suggested solution.
1. No light comes on when the scanner is turned on.
Make sure your scanner is connected to your
computer and plugged into a power source.
2. Add/Remove Hardware Wizard appears on your
screen.
Click the “Cancel” button and close the Control
Panel. Disconnect the USB cable from the back of
your computer, and refer to the installation
instructions in this guide.
3. When trying to scan, an error message appears on
your screen that reads, “Can’t Find Scanners”.
Make sure your scanner is unlocked (see Step 3).
Make sure your scanner is connected to your
computer and plugged into a power source (see Step
4).
Uninstall and reinstall the ScanWizard Pro or
ScanPotter software.
4. After clicking scan, a blank screen appears.
Make sure your scanner is unlocked (see Step 3).
Uninstall and reinstall the ScanWizard Pro or
ScanPotter software.
5. Having trouble scanning negatives or slides?
Make sure that you have properly inserted the Main
Holder or the Glass Holder, as indicated in Steps A
and B of the “Position the Scan Material” section of
the Start Here guide.
From the Preview window of ScanWizard Pro, choose
Positive or Negative from the Scan Material menu.
From the ScanPotter, go to the Scanner Settings
column, then click the Scan Source drop-down menu
to select either the Positive Film or Negative Film
option.
Make sure that the calibration strip is unobstructed.
For location of the calibration strip, see Steps A and B
of the “Position the Scan Material” section of the
Start Here guide.
Uninstall and reinstall the ScanWizard Pro or
ScanPotter software.
NOTE: This section is only available for the PC users who have installed the Microtek’s MSP utility,
and use the IT8 color targets to generate scanner ICC profiles.
The Microtek Scanner ICC Profiler (MSP) program
included with your ArtixScan F2 is used to calibrate
your scanner to achieve consistent and accurate color.
Two industry-standard IT8 color targets are included
with the SilverFast Ai Studio software kit: a Reflective
target to calibrate the upper scan bed for scanning
photos; and a Transparency target to calibrate the
lower scan bed for scanning film.
You will be asked to calibrate your scanner the first
time you run ScanWizard Pro to try to scan. You may
skip calibration to proceed directly to scanning, and
then choose to come back at a later time to perform
calibration.
