Installing the Parallel lnterface Card
Follow the steps in this section if you need to install the
bidirectional parallel interface card in your computer. You may
also need to configure the card before you install it.
Some computers come with a built-in bidirectional parallel
interface. You do not need to install the parallel interface card if
your computer has a built-in interface that you are not
currently using. If you will connect the scanner to an existing
interface, skip to “Setting Up the Scanner” on page 7.
Note:
Standard (unidirectional) and bidirectional parallel interfaces look the
same but operate differently. Your scanner does not work with a
standard parallel interface, so check your computer manual to make
sure you have an unused bidirectional parallel interface before you
connect the scanner to it.
Configuring the Card
The parallel interface card contains jumpers that select the port
address (LPT1 or LPT2) and interrupt (IRQ5 or IRQ7) it uses.
You may need to change the jumper settings if there is a
conflict with your computer’s parallel port settings. See your
computer manual for information about the port address and
interrupt used by its parallel port.
The bidirectional parallel interface card default settings are:
Cl
Port address LPT2
Cl
Interrupt IRQ5.
Your computer’s parallel port probably uses LPT1 and a
different IRQ setting. However, if it uses LPT2 or IRQ5, follow
the steps in this section to change the interface card’s jumper
settings.

holding it only by its top edges. Then place it on a flat,
clean surface.

Avoid touching the components or the gold contacts on
the interface

The settings are printed on the circuit board next to the
jumpers. To change a setting, lift off the jumper cap and
reinstall it over the appropriate pair of pins.
m
Caution:
Be careful not to bend the jumper pins.

Follow these steps to install the card in your computer:
1.
Turn off the computer and any peripheral devices.
2.
Disconnect the computer’s power cable from the electrical
outlet and from the back panel. Also disconnect any other
cables, including the keyboard cable.
3.
Remove the cover from your computer. If you need detailed
instructions, see your computer manual.
4.
Before you touch any of the computer’s internal components,
touch an unpainted metal surface inside the computer case
to discharge any static electricity.
5.
Choose an option slot for the interface card. You can install
the card in any available slot.
6.
Remove the retaining screw from the option slot cover and
remove the slot cover. Keep the screw to secure the
interface card to the computer. Store the slot cover in a safe
place in case you remove the interface card later.
7.
Insert the interface card into the slot, guiding it straight
down. Push the card down firmly (but carefully); you
should feel it fit into place.
8.
Secure the card to the computer with the retaining screw.
9.
Replace the computer’s cover, reconnect all the cables, and
plug the power cord into an electrical outlet.

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.
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.
