UMAX 1100 User Guide

 

This section serves as a quick reference to the connection and installation procedures for the 
PowerLook 1100 scanner. 
 

Unpack your scanner.  Make sure that all the scanner system hardware, software, cabling, and 
documentation items indicated on the packing list are present. 
 

Before using your scanner ensure that the carriage lock of scanner is in the unlocked position.  Insert 
a coin in the thumbscrew of the optical assembly lock and turn it firmly counterclockwise to unlock 
the optical assembly to avoid damaging the optics during transportation. 
 

   

 

 

 

 

Connect the FireWire (IEEE 1394) cable to the built in port of host and the other end of the cable to 
the scanner. 
 

 

Connect the power cord to the scanner and plug the other end of the power cord into an available 
outlet (socket). 
 

 

a)  Turn the scanner power switch on.  When the Ready indicator is on, your scanner is ready to 

use. 

b)  Turn on your computer. 

 

   

 

 

 

We recommend that you install your image editing software first and then MagicScan. 

a) 

Insert UMAX MagicScan CD into your CD-ROM drive. 

b)  Double-click on the MagicScan installer icon to start installation.

c) 

Follow the on-screen instructions to completely install MagicScan.
