Before you start, make sure the scanning device is powered and the cable is connected and close any other applications that might be using your scanner. Also check that the device is set to online mode.
- Select from the following options that you want to apply: Basic scan test (recommended), Check ADF capabilities, Paper sizes supported, Black and white scan test, Gray scan test, and Color scan test.
For advanced users: Additional tests, Advanced settings, and Hint editor (optimizes your scanner’s performance but you risk degrading its performance or even disabling its scanning capability).
- You are prompted a basic scan check and additional tests (for advanced users). Insert a test document or photograph in your scanning device, and then click Next.
- When your scanning device's native user interface appears, choose all the default settings in one of the color modes and proceed through a complete scan.
- After basic scan test has passed, if the scan appears to be correct, click Next to perform the next test. Otherwise, make the image correct with the following options: invert, rotate, flip horizontally, or flip vertically.
- If the image is missing or incomplete, there may be an issue with your scanning device. In this case, check that you correctly inserted a document or photograph and that the page size setting is suitable and click Next.
- Check the ADF capabilities: The Wizard determines your scanner type. If this is incorrect, select the appropriate type. This test checks how your scanner's ADF detects the presence of paper in its input. If the test fails, your scanner either continues to scan endlessly from the flatbed when the ADF becomes empty or a dialog from Administration Console appears on each page.
- Check paper sizes supported: The Wizard determines your scanner type. If this is incorrect, select the appropriate type. You are presented some page sizes that your scanner supports by its flatbed. Click Adjust to change paper sizes.
- Black and white scan test: If the Wizard detects that your scanner is capable to scan in black and white, it tries to scan in black and white (binary) mode.
- After the scan test has passed, if the scan appears to be correct, click Next to perform the next test. Otherwise, make the image correct with the following options: invert, rotate, flip horizontally, or flip vertically.
- The last two selections are repeated for grayscale and color modes.
- Click Finish to go back to the Select Scanner window.
