Before you start to operate the scanner, the scanner should be unlocked. To unlock
the scanner, follow the steps below:

1. Look for the unlocking screw at the bottom

of the scanner.

2. Using a screwdriver or a coin, push and

turn the locking screw counterclockwise to
the unlock position.

When successfully unlocked, the screw
will push out a little, protruding slightly
from the bottom of the scanner.

If you have to transport the scanner, the scanner must be locked. To lock the scanner,
follow the steps below:

1. Turn off the scanner if your scanner is on.

2. Turn the scanner back on. The scanner’s

carriage will move to the standby position
in 5 minutes.

3. When the indicators on the front of your

scanner stop blinking, use a screwdriver or
a coin and then push and turn the locking
screw clockwise to the locked position.

When the screw has been tightened, this
indicates that your scanner is locked.

4. Turn off your scanner. The scanner is now

ready for transport.
