The Scanner Test Utility B-5

How to use the Scanner Test utility

1. Click on the Start button to select the “Programs/Microtek ScanWizard 5 for

Windows/Scanner Test” submenu. The Scanner Test dialog box will appear.

2. Make sure your scanner model is shown in the Scanner model box (#1

element in preceding section). If you have multiple scanners hooked up on

your system, choose the correct scanner model to be tested. Take note of

the following:

• If your scanner is not shown, check to make sure the connection is

secure between your scanner and the PC. You may want to use the

Scanner Check feature (#4 element) to see if your scanner can be

detected by the system. Click on the Scanner Check button to do this.

• If you have a different scanner model than is being shown on the

Scanner model box, you may have changed your setup since the last

time. To update the system, click on the Reconfigure Equipment

button (#5 element). The correct scanner model should then be

displayed on the Scanner model box.

• If the above measures still fail to display your scanner model, turn off

your scanner and computer, then wait 2-3 seconds and turn them on

again to reset everything. (Some scanner models may require at least 60

seconds after being turned off before they can be powered up again. If

your scanner model does not come to a ready state, see the

Troubleshooting section of the manual.)

• Make sure the correct interface card is shown (discussed below in #3).

3. Make sure the correct interface card is shown in the Interface Card box (#2

element).

4. To start the scanner test:

• If you only have one image button (showing you the flatbed scanner):

Click on the Image button (#6 element) to start the scan test.

• If you're using a scanner accessory such as a TMA or ADF: Click on the

image button showing the accessory (instead of clicking on the button

showing the scanner). This will activate the scanning action on both

the scanner and the accessory.
