About SnapScan
In this Owner’s Guide, the name SnapScan is used for the SnapScan e10 (unless specified
otherwise).
The SnapScan is a one pass flatbed color scanner with a resolution of
600 x 1200 ppi equipped with a cold cathode lamp. It is based on CCD (Charge-Coupled Device)
scanning technology. With the SnapScan, you can scan line-art, gray-scale and color reflective
originals up to A4 format.
The scanned data is transferred through the computer’s USB (Universal Serial Bus) port. The USB
technology makes it easy to install multiple peripherals to your computer. USB eliminates any need
to turn off or restart the computer when attaching a new peripheral.
SnapScan is a scanner that captures and converts reflective originals (for example pictures, text)
into electronic data that can be used in computer applications. It offers high-resolution image
capturing and is an ideal tool in making presentations come to life.
SnapScan supports multiple scanning modes and includes scanner software to get you started right
away. With its powerful and easy-to-use scanner driver software, SnapScan gives you easy access
to high-quality color scans. The scanner driver software gives you a number of additional features to
create special effects or to reproduce even the most difficult originals.
The document cover is adjustable: when you put a thick original (like a book or a magazine) on the
reflective glass plate, the document cover adapts to the thickness of the original.
Environmental Requirements
"Place the scanner on a horizontal, flat surface.
"To ensure proper ventilation, allow a minimum of 10 cm (4 inches) free space around each
side of the scanner.
"Make sure that no vibrations or shocks occur.
"Make sure that the area is free of dust.
"Avoid any contact with water. Do not use your scanner near water or in a damp environment.
"Your SnapScan is designed to perform at best when the environmental humidity is between
20% and 85%. Avoid environments where humidity fluctuations might occur.
"Your SnapScan is designed to perform at best when the environmental temperature is
between 10 °C (+ 50 degrees Fahrenheit) and 40 °C (+104 degrees Fahrenheit). Avoid
exposure to direct sunlight and heating devices.
Preface 6
Precautions
For your own safety and that of your equipment, respect conscientiously the Environmental
Requirements and always take the following precautions:
"Check frequently whether there is no overheating of the AC adapter.
"If you do not use your scanner for some time, pull the AC adapter cable out of the power
supply socket.
"Handle your SnapScan with care: the glass plate is fragile. There is no warranty on breaking
the glass plate and your dealer is not liable for consequential damages.
"Disconnect the AC adapter when you want to clean the scanner housing or the glass plate and
when the scanner needs servicing or repairing.
"Do not open the scanner housing as it contains high-voltage areas and sensitive components.
Every repair should be carried out by your dealer.
"Do not leave originals on the reflective glass plate for excessive periods of time. The warmth of
the scanner may cause them to deteriorate.
"For safety reasons, never use extension cables for the AC adapter.
Caution: For safety reasons, besides the personal maintenance mentioned in this Owner's Guide,
do not try to remove any mechanical parts or any electronic components from your scanner. If your
scanner needs service, our dealer and service offices are available to help you.
Cleaning Your Scanner
"Cleaning the glass plate regularly, ensures that dirt or smudges do not reduce the quality of
your scanned images.
"Before cleaning, disconnect the AC adapter from your scanner.
"Use a soft damp cloth and a mild detergent to clean the surface of the glass plate. If you use
alcohol to clean the glass plate, make sure that you do not touch the plastic elements of the
scanner.
"Avoid using sprays directly onto the glass plate as this may cause the liquid to penetrate the
seams around the glass and contaminate the mirrors and lenses inside the scanner.
"Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
