Setting up the EC7000i or EC7500i
To set up the EC7000i and the EC7500i, follow these steps.
Choose a location
Locate your scanner in a place that:
• Has a flat surface, such as a countertop or table.
• Is convenient for the scanner operator.
• Offers adequate ventilation and protection from elements
such as heat, dust, oil, or moisture.
• Is close to a telephone line (depending on your unit) and
power connections.
Unpack the shipping box
1. Open the top of the box.
2. Remove and unwrap the items. Lift the scanner out of the box from the bottom of the scanner.
3. Save the box and wrapping for future use.
Your EC7000i or EC7500i product package includes the following:
• The scanner
• Power adapter
• Telephone cord (if the scanner includes a modem)
• Franker cartridge
• USB cable
• Thermal receipt paper roll (if the scanner includes a printer)
Inspect the scanner’s features
EC7000i and EC7500i scanners look very similar, but some scanners include a magnetic stripe reader
(MSR) and the EC7504f includes a receipt printer. The illustrations below show the basic scanner (type
A), and a scanner with a magnetic stripe reader and printer (type B). We’ll use type A throughout this
manual for consistency.
For more information on scanner models and features, see
Model and serial number.
NOTE: Before unpacking the box,
examine it for damage received during
shipping. If the scanner, or any
component, appears damaged, do not
use it. File a claim with the shipping
company and contact your distributor.
