Calibration

All -AS model scanners require initial calibration. The -IX series scanners are factory calibrated, so initial

calibration is not required. For information on calibrating your scanner, please visit our FAQ page.

addition to calibration. For instructions on how to clean your scanner, please visit our FAQ page.
