Installation

Step 2: Connect the Scanner
NOTE: The scanner does not have an external power supply. It draws
its power directly from the computer through the USB cable. If you use
a USB hub with your computer, the hub must have its own power
supply. The scanner does not have an on/off switch. The scanner is
ready to scan as soon as its software is finished loading onto your
computer.

To connect your Xerox scanner:
1. Remove any tape from the USB cable.
2. Plug the USB cable into the USB port on the scanner then into a USB
port on the computer. Check your computer’s manual for USB port
locations.

If the plug does not attach easily, make sure that you are plugging it in
correctly. Do not force the plug into either connection.
3. The status light on the front of the scanner is illuminated, indicating
the scanner is receiving power.
Your computer recognizes that a scanner has been plugged into the
USB port and automatically loads the appropriate software to run the
scanner.
Do not proceed until you receive a message that your computer has
found the new hardware, or updated the driver database. If your
computer is running Windows XP or Windows Vista, you will see a
message similar to the one below.

digital images, you’ll find it easy to construct and modify your
collages.

•

PhotoImpression is an all-in-one solution that blends powerful
photo editing with project templates, and a slick, easy-to-use
interface.

Editing or Deleting Scan Configurations
Editing and deleting is normally for the configurations you create, not for
your scanner’s pre-set configurations.
NOTE: Your scanner comes with a number of configurations pre-set at
the factory. To ensure that your scanner will always have a set of
correct scan configurations, do not delete the pre-set configurations.
We also recommend that you keep those configurations locked so they
are not inadvertently deleted. That way, you will always have the
factory-settings available. If you do delete or edit them, and want to get
the factory pre-sets back again, you will need to uninstall then re-install
your scanner.

To edit or delete a scan configuration:
1. Open the One Touch Properties window.

Image Formats
Select an image file format for photos, artwork or other documents that
you want to save as images. BMP and TIFF are standard image file
formats generally used if you want to do additional image processing,
such as photo touch-up or color correction. Both of those file formats tend
to be larger than the JPG format.
Because JPG image files can be reduced in size, the JPG format is often
used for images on web pages, or if file size might be a problem when
electronically sending the files. JPG files are reduced in size by lowering
their image quality, and you can select the degree of quality for your
scanned images from the JPG file format icon.
The PDF format is often used to create images of text pages. You may
want to select PDF as the format when scanning text pages that do not
require OCR processing or other processing. The PDF format is also
used to put multi-page documents on web sites as pdf-readable files. As
with the JPG option, the PDF format can be reduced in size or quality.

To select a JPEG or PDF file size:
1. Select JPG or PDF as the page format.
2. Right-click on the JPG or PDF icon.
A menu opens.

3. Choose the file size/image quality option for your scanned images.
Minimize Size—Smallest file size, lowest image quality.
Normal—Medium file size, some loss of image quality.
Maximize Quality—Largest file size, no loss of image quality.
Your selection pertains only to the button currently selected on the
One Touch Properties window. Other buttons that have JPG or PDF
selected as the Page Format are not affected, so you can set the JPG
or PDF file size/image quality independently for each button.

Scanning with Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) converts text and numbers on a
scanned page into editable text and numbers. You can then work with the
text and numbers to edit, spellcheck, change font or type size, sort,
calculate, and so forth.
NOTE: Xerox recommends that all OCR processing use the original
factory settings for OCR scanning that came with your scanner. When
scanning with other settings, use at least 200 dpi for the resolution. If
the original documents are of poor quality or have a small type font,
300 dpi can be used as the maximum resolution.

To scan with OCR:
1. Select a Destination Application that has one of the Text formats as
an option (TEXT, RTF, XLS, or HTML).
2. Scan the document.
Your scanned pages appear in the Destination Application with the
text ready for editing and other text processing.

To select OCR settings:
1. Select the Destination Application.
2. Right-click on a text format icon.

3. Choose OCR options.
4. Select the option you want for the OCR conversion of your
documents.
Auto orient page—Select this option to check the page orientation
and automatically rotate an improperly oriented page image so the
text is recognizable by the OCR process.
Single column output—Select this option to produce a single
column of text in the Destination Application, even if the original
image had multiple columns of text.
5. Click OK.
Note that the OCR options apply to all the Destination Applications for
which OCR applies. If you change them for one Destination
Application, those changes apply to the others as well.

Scanning from the TWAIN Interface

Scanning from the TWAIN
Interface
You can scan from any TWAIN scanning application instead of scanning
from the One Touch buttons on your scanner or the One Touch button
panel.
A Note About Your Scanner and the TWAIN standard: TWAIN is a
widely recognized standard that computers use to receive images from
scanners, digital cameras, and other digital devices. The TWAIN
scanning interface can be accessed from any TWAIN scanning
application you have installed on the computer. Applications such as
Nuance PaperPort and ArcSoft PhotoImpression, which were provided
with your scanner, and many other applications, can use the TWAIN
interface for scanning. Because the TWAIN interface is the same
regardless of the software you use to open it, you can still use the
instructions in this User’s Guide for scanning with your Xerox 7600
scanner. To access the TWAIN interface from other software, please refer
to their user’s guides, then return to this User’s Guide for the steps to
scan.
NOTE: You can access the TWAIN interface when you’re scanning
from the One Touch software. If the One Touch configuration you are
using is set to Configure Before Scan, and the selected option is
TWAIN, the TWAIN interface opens right away when pressing the
button on your scanner without opening any other TWAIN-compliant
software first. See the section “Configure Before Scan” on page 30 for
details.
The PaperPort and ArcSoft user guides are located on the installation
disc you received with the scanner.
The PaperPort software includes a complete set of help topics that
answer questions about each feature of the software. To open the Help
Topics window, press the F1 key on your keyboard or choose PaperPort
help from the Help menu.

them.
1. Open a TWAIN-compliant scanning application.
2. Use the application’s command that opens the TWAIN interface.
In PaperPort click on the toolbar Scan button then choose TWAIN:
Xerox 7600 when prompted. Select Display scanner dialog box
and then click on the Scan button in the scanning pane.
Many Microsoft Office applications can access the TWAIN interface

Adjusting the Resolution
Resolution determines the amount of detail you can see in the scanned
image. The resolution setting for a scan is in dots-per-inch (dpi). The
higher the resolution, the finer the details. However, higher dpi settings
also take longer to scan and produce larger file sizes. If you are scanning
photographs to make copies, 300 dpi will make a direct size copy of
similar image quality to the original. You would use a higher dpi setting to
enlarge a picture from the original size.

To adjust the resolution:
1. To use one of the preset resolutions for typical scanned items, click
one of the options in the list.
2. To set the resolution manually, drag the Resolution slider to the left
to decrease the resolution or to the right to increase it.
You can also type a number directly into the resolution setting box, or
click the up and down arrows to increase or decrease the setting.
3. Click Reset to return the resolution to its original setting.
The resolution panel also includes an advanced setting for Moire
patterns. Moire patterns are wavy, rippled lines that sometimes appear on
the scanned images of photographs or illustrations, particularly
newspaper and magazine illustrations. To scan the image and limit or
eliminate moire patterns, select the Reduce Moire option. This option is
not available for high resolution settings.

Maintenance

Maintenance
This section contains information about cleaning, troubleshooting,
uninstalling, and scanner specifications.

Cleaning the Scanner Glass
Scanning items that have excessive amounts of dirt or dust may dirty the
glass. To ensure the best quality scanned item, wipe the scanner glass
with a soft clean cloth to rid the glass of dust or other debris.

Troubleshooting
In addition to the troubleshooting information contained in this section,
please see the Readme file on your installation CD. The Readme file
contains additional information that may help you diagnose problems with
the scanner.
If you try the troubleshooting procedures described in this section and in
the Readme file, and the scanner still has problems, visit our web site at
www.xeroxscanners.com for additional technical information.

Problem: The scanner won’t scan. What’s wrong?
Check for one of these possible problems:
•

Is the cable loose or not plugged in securely? Inspect the cable
connection. Make sure the USB cable is plugged in securely.

•

Is the scanner’s status light on? If the status light is not on, plug the
USB cable into a different port on your computer.

•

Did you restart the computer after installing the software? If you
didn’t restart the computer, it may not have loaded all of the software
files. Try restarting your computer.

•

Do you plug the scanner into a USB hub? Try plugging the
scanner directly into a USB port on the computer.

•

Did you select another TWAIN source for acquiring images? If
you use multiple TWAIN devices, such as a digital camera, with your
computer, you may have selected another source for images.

Problem: During installation I got the error message:
PaperPort Installation is not complete. What do I do?
The installation procedure was not successful. You need to reboot your
computer and then restart the PaperPort software installation.

Maintenance

Problem: The installation will not complete successfully.
If installation finishes, the scanner’s One Touch 4.0
options do not seem to work properly. What do I do?
A likely cause is that some driver programs are already installed on your
computer for another scanner. They are interfering with the installation
and One Touch options, and you need to remove those other drivers and
re-install your Xerox scanner. Please see the documentation that you
received with the other scanner for the steps to remove its driver
programs. You can also use the basic steps in the section “Uninstalling
Your Scanner” on page 71, but instead of uninstalling One Touch 4.0,
uninstall the other scanner’s driver programs. After uninstalling the other
scanner’s driver programs, uninstall One Touch 4.0 using the steps on
page 71, then reinstall it using the steps starting on page 5.

Problem: If the USB cable is disconnected during a scan,
the scanner does not reconnect when the USB cable is
plugged back in.
Unplug the USB cable from the scanner, and then plug it back in.
If the scanner does not reconnect:
1. Unplug the USB cable from the scanner.
2. Restart your computer.
3. After the restart is complete, plug the USB cable back in.

Problem: My computer keeps giving me out of hard drive
space error messages. What do I do?
The minimum requirement of 350MB free hard drive space is for the
installation of the software and basic, low resolution, scanning. High
resolution scans result in files that can be over 1 gigabyte in size. Free up
some space on your hard drive for the software to be able to save the
scanned images.

Problem: My computer keeps giving me out of memory
error messages. What do I do?
Make sure that your system meets the minimum requirements for using
the scanner as shown on page 3.
