6 ArtixScan 4000tf Installation and Operation Manual
Connecting the Scanner to Your Computer
The ArtixScan 4000tf comes with both FireWire and USB. You may choose either
FireWire (IEEE-1394) or USB as the interface to make the connection between the
scanner and computer. (You can use only one interface at a time.)
Connecting Scanner Using the FireWire Cable
Before connecting the scanner, check to see if your computer system is FireWire-Ready.
“FireWire-Ready” means you can connect the scanner to your computer using the
provided FireWire cable.
• For Macintosh users, your computer should have been equipped with a built-in
FireWire port. This port should be designated with the FireWire symbol shown to the
left. If your computer does not have a built-in FireWire port, use the USB interface
instead.
• For PC users, the FireWire card should be installed and should work properly in your
computer before you connect the scanner. If your computer does not have a FireWire
card, see the section “System is Not FireWire-Ready” to install the FireWire card, or
use the USB interface instead.
System is FireWire-Ready
If your system is FireWire-Ready, follow the steps below to make connection.
1. Connect the power cord to your scanner.
Plug the power cord into the back of the scanner, and plug the other end into a wall
outlet or power source. Make sure no other cable is connected to the scanner except
the power cord at this point.
