the HP scanning utilities.

power cable from the scanner.

2. Use the Add/Remove tool (in Windows Vista, the Programs and Features tool) from

the Control Panel to uninstall the following items:

3. Restart the computer.
4. Use the HP Scanning Software CD that came with the scanner to reinstall the HP

Scanjet Drivers and Tools.

5. Reconnect the USB cable and power cable to the scanner, and then press the

Power switch to the on position.
After 30 seconds, the Power LED is lit with a steady green light and the Attention
