The first step to take when troubleshooting connection problems with your scanner is to check all 
physical connections.  Make sure your scanner is plugged in and the USB cable is fit snugly into 
the rear of your scanner and computer.

please run the Scanner Utility program as described below:

In most cases, the scanner doesn’t need to be aligned but there are instances when the alignment 
might be required.  You need to align the scanner only if parts of the scanned document are 
missing from any of its edges.  For example, the heading of a document might be missing from 
the top edge after the document has been scanned. 
To align the scanner, follow the steps below: 
 
1.  Place a photograph on the top right side of the scanner glass (near the back of the scanner).  

Please note that only part of the photograph will be scanned. 

 
2.  Click on the SCAN button.  Part of the photograph will be displayed in the ALIGNMENT 

window. 

 
3.  Click on the ALIGN POSITION buttons until the top left corner of the scanned photograph 

aligns with the top left corner of the preview window. 

 
4.  Click on the check mark button when the alignment has been completed.
