Refer to "Changing the SCSI ID Numbers" if you need to change the SCSI ID. If there is a conflict because another Init file exists in the System folder, try removing the Init file and then installing the driver. Remove all Apple-compatible drivers before installing the Scanner file. Refer to the section Scanner Troubleshooting in this chapter for solving problems. Scanner model doesn't support an older version of the scanner driver. 7. 16 Changing the SCSI ID Number If you have other devices connected to your SCSI port, you need to check and see what SCSI ID's are already used. If, after checking other devices in the SCSI chain, you find that SCSI ID 5 is unused, you do not need to change the ID on the scanner and you can go ahead with the installation. If, however, after checking other devices in the SCSI chain, you find that another device uses SCSI ID 5, you must reset the SCSI ID on your scanner. Gently turn the switch until an unused number appears in the switch's notch. Note: Do not use SCSI 8 and 9 on your scanner. They are for factory use only. If All Else Fails If the above solutions do not resolve the problem, contact your dealer or check the UMAX support Web site at www. umax. com/support.
