Question: How long does it take for the scanner to initialize?

Printer Questions
Question: What is the function of the Pass-Through Port?
Answer: The ImageReader Ultra is conveniently equipped with a pass-
through port. This port allows you to connect any other
parallel port device such as a printer to the scanner so that
they can share the same port from your computer.
Question: How do I use the pass-through port?
Answer: Connect the printer’s cable to the port labeled Printer on the
back of the scanner. Both the scanner and the printer are now
