Installation
This section provides information on the proper procedure for connecting your
scanner.
Installing the Scanner Software
Before connecting the scanner to your computer, follow the steps below to install the
scanner software:
1. Turn on your computer.
2. Insert the Microtek CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive.
ForMacintoshusers:
When the Microtek CD-ROM icon appears on your Macintosh desktop, double-
click on this icon to open it. Double-click “For OS 9.x”or “For OS X”, depending
on the OS you are using. When the software installer screen appears, click each
software program on the screen to install all the software components. Double-
click the “Install”icon on each folder to install the programs one at a time.
To install ScanWizard Pro TX on Mac OS X, double-click “ScanWizard Pro TX”to
mount the ScanWizard Pro TX installer on the desktop, then double-click the
ScanWizard Pro TX "mpkg" icon in its folder. When the installation dialog box
comes up, enter the administrator' s name and password, then follow the on-
screen instructions until installation is complete.
ForPCusers:
The Microtek Scanner Software installer screen should automatically come up.
When the software installer screen appears, click each software program in the
order that it appears on the screen to install all the software components.
When you install ScanWizard Pro TX, the installer program will install the Color
Matching System driver program and ask you to perform Color Matching for your
monitor and printer. The Color Matching System feature ensures color
consistency from the initial input phase when an image is captured by the
scanner, to the final output process when the image is output to your monitor or
printer.
Note: If the software installer screen does not come up automatically, double-
click the following in succession: “My Computer” on your Windows desktop;
the CD-ROM icon; and then cdsetup.exe to start the installer program.
3. Restart your computer when software installation is complete.
6 ArtixScan 120tf Installation and Operation Manual
Connecting the Scanner to Your Computer
The ArtixScan 120tf comes with both FireWire and SCSI-2 built-in interfaces. You may
choose either FireWire (IEEE-1394) or SCSI as the interface for connection between
the scanner and computer. (Choose only one interface –either FireWire or SCSI, but
not both.)
Using the FireWire Cable
Before connecting the scanner, check to see if your computer system is FireWire-
ready. FireWire-ready means you can connect the scanner to your computer using the
provided FireWire cable.
System is FireWire-ready
•For Macintosh users, your computer should be equipped with a built-in FireWire
port, designated with the FireWire symbol “ ”.
•For PC users, the FireWire card should be installed and should work properly in
your computer.
System is Not FireWire-ready
If your system is not FireWire-ready, you will need to install a FireWire card. For more
details on how to install the FireWire card, please refer to the “FireWire Installation
Guide” on a separate documentation included with your scanner package.
Alternatively, you can use the SCSI interface to connect your scanner.
For FireWire-ready Systems:
1. Connect the power cord to your scanner.
Plug the power cord into the back of the scanner, and plug the other end into a
power source (power surge protector highly recommended). Make sure no other
cable is connected to the scanner except the power cord at this point.
