Scanning An Image - Epson Perfection 1240U Photo Startup Manual

Scanning an Image

Before scanning a document, remember to respect the rights of
copyright owners. Do not scan published text or images without
first checking the copyright status.
1. Place the scanner on a flat, stable surface.
2. Plug in the scanner . The fluorescent lamp in the carriage turns
on.
3. Turn on the computer and make sure that the scanner's
indicator light has stopped flashing and now stays on (green).
Note:
A flashing indicator light (red) indicates an error; in this case
see "Maintenance and Troubleshooting" in your Online
Reference Guide to troubleshoot the problem.
The fluorescent lamp turns off if no command arrives from the
computer within 15 minutes. This is normal and the lamp turns
back on once you start scanning. The lamp also turns off if you
unplug the USB cable, and turns on again 1 second later.
4. Open the document cover.
