Common Macintosh problems

Refer to Macintosh User’s Guide that came with your computer for

further information on Macintosh error messages.

The machine does
not appear on the
scanners list.

Ensure your machine is attached to your

computer, connected properly via the USB

port, and is turned on.

Ensure the scanner driver for your machine is

installed in your system. Open Unified Linux

Driver configurator, switch to Scanners
configuration

, then press Drivers. Make

sure that driver with a name corresponding to

your machine's name is listed in the window.

Ensure the port is not busy. Since functional

components of machine (printer and scanner)

share the same I/O interface (port), the

situation of simultaneous access of different

“consumer” applications to the same port is

possible. To avoid possible conflicts, only one

of them at a time is allowed to gain control

over the device. The other “consumer” will

encounter “device busy” response. This

usually happens when starting a scan

procedure. An appropriate message box

appears.
To identify the source of the problem, open

the Ports configuration and select the port

assigned to your scanner, port's symbol

/dev/mfp0 corresponds to LP:0 designation

displayed in the scanners’ options, /dev/mfp1

relates to LP:1, and so on. USB ports start at

/dev/mfp4, so scanner on USB:0 relates to

/dev/mfp4 respectively and so forth

sequentially. In the Selected port pane, you

can see if the port is occupied by another

application. If this is the case, you should

either wait for completion of the current job or

press the Release port button, if you are sure

that the present port applicaton is not

functioning properly.

The machine does
not scan.

Ensure a document is loaded into the

machine, ensure your machine is connected

to the computer.

If there is an I/O error while scanning.
