2. Connecting the Scanner

  • Connect the power adapter to the scanner and a power outlet.
  • Connect the USB cable from the scanner to an available USB port on your computer.

3. Software Installation

  • Insert the provided installation CD/DVD into your computer's drive, or download the latest drivers and software (including PaperStream IP) from the official Fujitsu support website.
  • Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the software installation. PaperStream IP is a TWAIN compliant driver that offers powerful image cleanup tools.

Operating Instructions

1. Loading Documents

  • Open the document feeder cover and adjust the side guides to match the width of your documents.
  • Load documents into the automatic document feeder (ADF). The scanner supports mixed paper sizes and weights, eliminating the need for pre-sorting.
  • The ADF has a standard sheet capacity of 80 pages.
  • The scanner also supports scanning of plastic and embossed cards.

2. Initiating a Scan

  • Ensure the scanner is powered on (green light on the Power button).
  • On your computer, open the scanning software (e.g., PaperStream Capture or other compatible application).
  • Select your desired scanning profile or adjust settings such as color mode (color, grayscale, monochrome), resolution (up to 600 dpi optical), and output destination.
  • Press the 'Scan/Stop' button on the scanner or initiate the scan from the software interface. The scanner operates at 40 pages per minute (ppm) and performs duplex scanning.

3. Utilizing Software Features

  • PaperStream IP includes tools to remove colored and decorated backgrounds, automatically remove blank pages, and improve Optical Character Recognition (OCR) accuracy for searchable PDFs.
  • Review scanned images within the software and make any necessary adjustments or corrections before saving.

Maintenance

1. Cleaning Procedures

  • Regularly clean the scanner's rollers and glass surfaces to prevent dust and debris from affecting scan quality.
  • Use a soft, lint-free cloth lightly dampened with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid spraying cleaner directly onto the scanner.
  • Refer to the detailed cleaning instructions in the full user manual for specific components.

2. Roller Replacement

  • Over time, the feed rollers may wear out, leading to paper feeding issues.
  • Consult the full user manual for instructions on how to inspect and replace the rollers. Replacement kits are available from authorized Fujitsu dealers.

Troubleshooting

Common Issues and Solutions:

  • Paper Jams: If a paper jam occurs, carefully open the scanner covers and remove any jammed paper. Ensure documents are loaded correctly and the side guides are adjusted.
  • Poor Scan Quality: Clean the scanner's glass and rollers. Ensure the original documents are clean and flat. Adjust scanning settings (e.g., resolution, brightness) in the software.
  • Scanner Not Detected: Verify that the USB cable is securely connected to both the scanner and the computer. Check that the scanner's power is on. Reinstall the scanner drivers if necessary.
  • Software Errors: Ensure your scanning software and drivers are up to date. Restart the software and/or your computer.
