5.1 Adjusting Scan Settings

After powering on, use the Settings button and Up/Down buttons to navigate through options such as:

Place the document or photo you wish to scan on a flat, stable surface. Hold the scanner firmly and position it at the top edge of the item. Press the "SCAN" button once to begin scanning.

6. Maintenance

6.1 Cleaning the Scanner

To maintain optimal scanning quality, regularly clean the scanner's glass surface and rollers. Use the provided cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth. For stubborn marks, slightly dampen the cloth with a small amount of screen cleaner or isopropyl alcohol. Avoid spraying liquids directly onto the scanner.

6.2 Battery Care

To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. If the scanner will not be used for an extended period, charge it to approximately 50% before storage and recharge every few months.

7. Troubleshooting

  • Scanner not powering on: Ensure the battery is charged. Connect the scanner to a power source and try again.
  • Scanned images are blurry or distorted: Ensure you are scanning on a flat surface. Maintain a steady and consistent speed while gliding the scanner. Clean the scanner's lens and rollers.
  • Cannot connect via Wi-Fi: Ensure Wi-Fi is enabled on the scanner and your receiving device. Verify you are connecting to the correct scanner SSID. Restart both devices.
  • Files not saving to SD card: Ensure the Micro SD card is properly inserted and not full. Check if the card is locked (if applicable).
  • Scanner not recognized by computer via USB: Try a different USB port or cable. Ensure the scanner is powered on.
