Hi, I received a scanner as a gift WITHOUT directions. So, I would appreciate any help on how to hook up and use the scanner. I know it can't be too hard, but need some input. I want to get acquainted with my Countryside friends and it will be great to see all the pictures on our "site". Will be sending mine in soon as I conquer this scanner,,:-),,Many Thanks,,,

The scanner manufacturer should have a web site with this info.

Many scanners hook up to the printer port on the back of your computer some have a 2nd printer port on the back of the scanner so you can hook up your printer in a series. Some have a usb conection on a usb conection you have to load the drivers for the scanner and after that is done you then hook it up to the usb conection on the computer. Back to the Printer port if you have windows 98 turn off everything hook up the scanner and turn on the scanner then turn on the computer and it will find it and will search the window 98 directory for the drivers to make it work, if it is not there then go to the manufactures web site and they should have a place to download the drivers for the model you have. dale

Hendo, if you're serious, go to Start, Programs and Scanner.

I assume everybody knows you need to install software/drivers so computer's operating system knows what scanner is and what to do with it.
