4     ScanMaker 9800XL Installing and Getting Started

Your scanner has a locking screw to protect the scanner carriage mechanism during
shipping. Before you operate the scanner, you need to disengage the locking screw.

1. Turn the scanner on its side and locate the

locking screw at the bottom of the scanner.

2. Using a flathead screwdriver, turn the locking

screw counterclockwise until the screw pushes
out and is flush with the bottom of the scanner
base.

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. Set the SCSI ID number to “9”.

3. Turn on your scanner. The scanner's carriage

will move to standby position in 5 minutes.

4. When the indicators on the front of your scanner

stop blinking, turn the locking screw clockwise
one-fourth turn while pushing it in
simultaneously. The screw should stay in and not
pop back out.

5. Turn off your scanner. The scanner is now ready for transport.

Note:  To use the scanner again at a future time, be sure to reset the SCSI ID to its
original number prior to step #2. Otherwise, the scanner ID will be left at SCSI ID 9
and will not work.
