Installing and troubleshooting

Performing basic installation 

troubleshooting 

If the scanner or software is not working, perform these steps first:

Check that the power cable is securely connected between the scanner and a 
live electrical outlet or a surge protector that is turned on.

Make sure you have properly and securely connected the scanner to the 
computer using either the universal serial bus (USB) or the parallel input/output 
(I/O) interface. See 

"Using interface connections" on page 12

.

If the scanner is making a loud grinding noise, make sure the scanner is 
unlocked. Move the lock to the unlocked position.

Disconnect the power cable from the scanner and turn off the computer. After 
30 seconds, reconnect the power cable and then turn on the computer, in that 
order.

If you receive installation file errors, or the scanning software will not run, make 
sure all programs are closed and complete the following steps:

 a

If you have any previous versions of HP scanning software, uninstall that 
software. (To uninstall the software, follow the instructions that came with 
the software.)

 b

Double-click the 

Add/Remove

 

Programs

 icon.

 c

Select the HP Precisionscan Pro software and click 

Add/Remove 

[for 

Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Millennium Edition (Me), and 
Windows NT] or 

Change

 (for Windows 2000).

 d

After the welcome screen, double-click the 

Repair 

option on the second 

screen. (Choosing 

Repair

 will reinstall the software with the same options 

you chose the first time.)

 e

Follow the instructions on the screen.

 f

If you still receive installation file errors or the scanning software will not 
run, uninstall and reinstall the HP scanning software. See

 

"Uninstalling the 

software" on page 22
