Troubleshooting
This chapter describes the problems that might occur in the CR-50/80, 
and how to remedy them.
When the Scanner Is Not Recognized
The following causes and remedies describe why your computer may 
not recognize the scanner.
Clearing Paper Jams
If paper has jammed, open the Maintenance Cover and remove the 
jammed paper.
IMPORTANT
Do not attempt to pull the jammed paper upwards or backwards 
against the feeding direction. Doing so can damage the internal parts 
of the scanner.
CAUTION
• Be careful when you clear a paper jam. You may be injured
unexpectedly. For example, the paper edges may cut your 
fingers, or the document may be damaged.
• Remove all jammed sheets of paper. Paper scraps left inside
the scanner may cause a paper jam or malfunction.
