2. Turn on the scanner by pressing the P operate button. The
operate light starts flashing.
3. Make sure the fluorescent lamp on the carriage flashes, and
the carriage moves slightly.
4. The operate light stays on, meaning the scanner has
completed initialization.

If the scanner does not work as described, make sure the power
cord is firmly plugged in and that you have released the
transportation lock, then try again.
