Description Explanation
Blue light flashes for 1 second every 5 seconds
Scanner is in sleep mode. Press SCAN button to wake scanner or insert media
Loaded document suddenly moves through the scanner and is ejected. Light flashes 1 second every 5 seconds
Scanner has entered deep power save mode. Place paper on tray then remove it to re-power the scanner
Orange light shows and will not scan Paper tray is still open and not properly engaged at one or both ends. Close paper tray.
Scan! starts to scan but then sends document through scanner faster than normal when connected to a computer
Scan! could not find the computer on the same network. Use ‘information’ in the scanner and ipconfig from the command prompt at the computer to verify that both devices are identical in the first three frames of the IP address192.168.001.XXX.
Paper size is not detected properly Scanner glass may be dirty. Inspect and clean if necessary. Note if the glass was dirty at the time a color calibration was carried out a perfectly clean scan glass will not help. Check the scan glass is still clean then color calibrate and try again.
Document is ejected or does not scan properly using automatic paper sizing
Document is wider than the scanner maximum scan width. Rotate document if possible or change to largest manual size (D-size portrait or E-size portrait).
Scans are not being saved when using the USB flash memory mode
The USB flash memory may be damaged, worn out of poor quality or incompatible. Change to a different type
Description Explanation / Tip
Dealing with a document that has loaded skewed or the document is not lying flat
Do not press Eject or Scan. Instead slightly lower the paper tray towards the maintenance position (p16), remove the document, click the paper tray assembly back up into position and reload
Do not feed a document immediately behind the document still being processed (held but not yet ejected) Always allow the previous document to be ejected before loading a fresh document
Failing to allow the scanner to finish and eject a document causes any following document placed in the scanner to be ejected without being staged ready to be scanned
I find it difficult sometimes to load larger documents squarely into the scanner
Grip the paper at each side 2”/ 50mm in from the leading edge. With the paper slightly in tension (stretched) rest each hand on the tray so that the leading edge is parallel and ¼”/ 6mm in front of the white ruler. Now push the document into the scanner.
Why does the scanner not accept any more than 8 scans when scanning internally to its own memory
SmartLF Scan! is limited to holding 8 scans internally.
The processing circle icon seems to continue beyond 1 minute.
Please restart the scanner and try again. If using a memory stick try a different one.
OPERATING TIPS
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

DOCUMENT NO. 88N001D Colortrac Ltd © 2015
Pressing the scan button when using the USB stick does not start the scan
Wait 3 to 4 seconds after inserting the USB stick into Scan! before pressing the scan button for the stick to be recognised properly
When using the Scan! netapp no scans are received into the folder
a) Power cycle the scanner b) Determine the scanner IP address then ping it from the computer e.g. ping 192.168.001.xxx c) Is the netapp running? d) Is a netapp running on a different computer and directing the scans somewhere else? e) If b and c are okay uncheck the Scanner Lock checkbox in c or d to reset the lock (required after a firmware upgrade)
Straight lines and diagonal lines in the scan images have very small breaks in them when inspected at high zoom
If the scanner is subjected to strong physical shock or extremes of temperature during storage or shipment the internal optical alignment may be altered very slightly. Use the line calibrate function from the more settings menu and the calibration target to electronically re-align the scanner.
The color of the image is suddenly changing very slightly across the scanner
If the scanner is being used in a room where the temperature is more warm or cold than normal or different to the environment where the scanner was last color calibrated then it may be necessary to recalibrate. Use the color calibrate function from the more settings menu and the calibration target to electronically re-set the color in the scanner.
