Precautions for Use in 64-bit Operating Systems
• The ISIS/TWAIN driver supplied with this product supports scanning
with 32-bit applications only.
• Even with 32-bit applications, not all ISIS/TWAIN compliant
applications are guaranteed to operate.
• Scanning speed may vary depending on the specifications of your computer.
IMPORTANT
• If you use the USB interface that was provided as standard with
your computer:
• Use the most recently available USB 2.0 driver provided by
Microsoft. Contact your local authorized Canon dealer for more
detailed information.
• Not all USB interfaces provided as standard with personal
computers are guaranteed. Contact your local authorized Canon
dealer for more detailed information.
• Scanning speeds are slower if your computer's standard USB
interface is USB 1.1.
• You should use the USB cable originally bundled with the scanner
or a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 compatible cable.
• If the CPU, memory, interface card, and other specifications do not
satisfy the installation requirements, the scanning speed may be
greatly reduced and transmission may take longer.
• Even if the computer satisfies the recommended specifications, the
scanning speed may vary, depending on the scan settings.
