HP Scanjet G2410 Flatbed Scanner - Manual (Page 19)

Scanner will not turn on
If the scanner will not turn on when you press the front-panel scanner buttons, check for
these possible problems:
•
The scanner might have been unplugged. Check to see that the power cable has not
become disconnected from the scanner or unplugged from the power source.
• The scanner might be turned off. Check to see that the scanner power switch is in
the on position.
• Check to see that the TMA cable has not become disconnected from the scanner.
Scanner does not scan right away
If the scanner has not been used for a while, the scanner lamp might need to go through
a warm-up period before scanning can begin. If the scanner lamp needs to warm up, it
takes a moment after starting the software or pressing a scanner button for scanning to
begin.
To change the lamp warm-up setting, open the HP Solution Center, click Settings, and
then click Scan Preferences.
Buttons appear not to work
After each step, start a scan to see if the buttons are working. If not, proceed with the
next step.

A cable might be loose. Ensure that the USB cable, the TMA cable, and the power
cable are securely connected.
