P
Apple system software 7.0 or higher

Setting Up the Scanner
Follow these steps to set up the scanner:
1.
Take the scanner out of its box and place it on a flat, stable
surface with the rear panel facing you.
2.
Remove the tape securing the scanner cover and pull out
the paper underneath the cover.
2
3.
Locate the round screw in the middle of the rear panel and
turn it counterclockwise. If necessary, use a coin to loosen it.
4.
Remove the screw and push it into the storage hole marked
STOCK;
do not screw it in.
5.
Connect one end of the power cable to the power inlet on
the rear of the scanner and plug the other end into an
appropriately grounded electrical outlet as shown below.
If the scanner comes on when you plug it in, turn it off by
pressing the
OPERATE
button.
Warning:
Whenever you
turn
off the scanner, wait at least 10 seconds
before turning it back on. Rapidly turning it on and off can
damage the scanner.
Connecting the Scanner to Your
Macintosh
Follow the steps below to connect
the
scanner directly to the
SCSI port on your Macintosh using
the
SCSI cable included
with the scanner. This cable has a 25-pin connector on one end
and a 50-pin connector on the other. The SCSI ID is already set
to 2 and the SCSI terminator is on.
If you are already using the SCSI port on your computer for
another SCSI device, such as an external hard disk, you need a
SCSI cable with a 50-pin connector
on
both ends. You can then
connect the scanner to your other SCSI device and set the SCSI
ID and terminator as necessary; follow the instructions in
Chapter 1 of your scanner User’s Guide.

Turn off your Macintosh, scanner, and all peripheral devices.
Caution:
Be sure that your Macintosh, scanner, and all peripheral devices
are turned off before you plug in the SCSI cable.
Plug the 25-pin connector into the SCSI port on the Macintosh
with a
e
icon above it. Tighten the two screws on the
sides of the connector.
Connect the 50-pin end of the cable to either the top or
bottom SCSI connector on the scanner; then fasten the
connector with the wire clamps on its side.
Turn on the scanner by pressing the
OPERATE
button. The
green OPERATE
light comes on on the top right side of the
scanner. The
READY
light comes on when the scanner has
warmed up.
Then turn on your Macintosh. (Always turn on the scanner
before turning on the Macintosh.)
Installing the EPSON Scanning Utilities
The EPSON Scanning Utilities include EPSON Scan! II and
EPSON TWAIN for the Macintosh. Scan! II uses TWAIN to
capture images and then saves and exports these images in a
variety of file formats. It also calibrates your scanner and
output devices to produce images nearly identical to the
originals.
EPSON TWAIN is a set of drivers designed to access your
scanner’s advanced features for any software that supports
TWAIN for Macintosh. TWAIN drivers are an industry
standard for acquiring image data from a variety of external
sources without leaving your application program.
Follow these steps to install the EPSON Scanning Utilities:
