Scanner Utility Program 
T
he Scanner Utility Program can help you get your new scanner up and running. In addition, it 
contains a number of other features to help you tailor and control the scanner. 
 
Most significantly, the Scanner Utility Program checks to make sure that the scanner software is 
properly installed and the scanner and computer are communicating with each other.   
 
Two other features of the Scanner Utility program are the scanning lamp controls and the 
scanning position alignment utility
. The Scanner Utility allows you to turn the scanning lamp on 
and off, and define an idle time for the scanning lamp to automatically turn itself off. Also, it allows 
you to define the exact position on the scanning glass where scanning will begin. The scanner 
lock was designed to hold the scanning lamp in place during shipping, but some refinement of the 
initial scanning position may still be necessary.

Attention 
 
The Scanner Utility program does NOT affect the quality of scanned images. It is only used to 
establish a connection with the scanner.  Settings that affect the scanned image (i.e., color, size, 
readability, clarity, etc.) can be found in the scanner software programs and especially the TWAIN 
interface.
