4      ArtixScan 2500 Installation and Operation Manual

This section provides information on procedures you need to perform or things to check on your ArtixScan 2500
scanner regardless of the environment in which you operate — whether it is on the Macintosh or on the PC. The
general installation procedures cover the following subjects: 1) unpacking your scanner; 2) unlocking the scanner; 3)
resetting the scanner’s SCSI ID if necessary; 4) powering up the scanner; and 5) choosing your scanning station.

While unpacking the scanner, inspect the shipping
carton for any signs of mishandling or damage. Your
scanner’s packing carton and padding material has been
carefully chosen to prevent damage to the unit in
shipping and can withstand a reasonable amount of
abuse.

Refer to the package contents checklist included with
your scanner to ensure that you received all of the parts
necessary for scanner setup. Should you observe any
damage or missing parts, contact the shipper and your
dealer immediately.

To prevent damage to the scanner’s moving parts, the
scanner carriage is locked into place prior to shipment.
You must unlock the carriage before powering up the
scanner. Failure to do so may damage the scanner and
will void your warranty. Follow the unlocking instruc-
tions below:

The carriage lock of the ArtixScan 2500 is located on
the scanner’s left side.

To unlock the carriage, insert a flathead screwdriver or a
coin into the locking screw slot and turn the screw a
quarter turn counter-clockwise. Once unlocked the screw
head will pop out slightly but will remain in the scanner.
