Caution: Your scanner won't work unless the transportation lock is in

Connect the scanner to your computer. Use either the USB cable that
came with your scanner or a SCSI cable, if your computer has SCSI
support. Don't connect both cables.
If you're using USB...
Plug the square end of the USB cable into the scanner's
USB port. Plug the flat end into any available USB port
on your computer or USB hub. Then go to step 4.
Click Install
Note: Your scanner may not work correctly if you use a USB cable
other than the one supplied by EPSON, of if you connect your scanner
to a multi-level USB hub system.
If you're using SCSI...
If you have another SCSI device that uses SCSI ID 2, turn the SCSI ID
switch on the back of the scanner to a new number. Do not use 0 or 7.
Unless your scanner is connected in the middle of a SCSI chain,
leave the terminator switch on the back of the scanner turned ON.
Squeeze the lock releases on your SCSI cable, and plug the cable into
either SCSI connector on the back of the scanner. Connect the pin end
of the cable to the SCSI port on your computer.
