Before You Begin
Please make sure of the following before you begin installation:
• If you are prompted to reboot during installation, please select "No". Finish installing the rest of the software, 
then close all open windows and reboot your computer. 
• The information in this guide may cover software not provided with the scanner you purchased. Please 
disregard any information about the software not applicable to your scanner. Visit our web site at 
www.xeroxscanners.com for the latest software updates for your Xerox scanner.
• If your computer has AntiVirus or AntiSpyware software running, you may encounter alerts or messages during 
installation asking you to allow the installation to proceed. Although the messages will differ based on the 
software your computer is running, in each case you should allow the installation to proceed if that option is 
available. Alternatively, you can turn off the AntiVirus or AntiSpyware software before installing your scanner, 
but if you do, make sure to turn it back on again when installation is finished.
• If you already have a scanner connected to your computer, it is recommended that you remove that scanner’s 
driver program prior to installing your Xerox scanner. You can remove these programs from the Windows 
Control Panel. Please refer to the user manual provided with your other scanner hardware for instructions 
about removing the driver and software for that unit.
• If your computer is running Windows Vista or Windows 7, you may see the Windows User Account Control 
screen asking you to confirm system changes. Click the Ye s button to allow the installation to proceed.

Connect the USB Cable
The scanner does not have an external power supply. It draws its power directly from the computer through the USB 
cable. If you use a USB hub with your computer, the hub must have its own power supply. The scanner does not 
have an on/off switch. The scanner is ready to scan as soon as its software is finished loading onto your computer.
After you plug in the scanner you will be prompted perform a calibration. Please have your calibration page ready. 
1. Remove any tape from the USB cable.
2. Plug the USB cable into the USB port on the scanner then into a USB port on the computer. 
If the plug does not attach easily, make sure that you are plugging it in correctly. Do not force the plug into 
either connection.
Your computer recognizes that a scanner has been plugged into the USB port and automatically loads the 
appropriate software to run the scanner. If your computer is running Windows version XP or later, you will see a 
message similar to the one below.
