CHECKING IT OUT  
This section of the manual applies to both models of the Visioneer  
OneTouch scanner—the 7600 USB scanner and the 7600 Parallel  
scanner.  
The OneTouch scanner software adds the scanner icon to the Windows  
taskbar (at the bottom right corner of the computer screen). If the  
scanner icon looks like the one shown in the figure, the scanner is  
properly connected.  
Scanner Icon  
If the icon has a red X through it, the scanner is not properly connected.  
Please see the next section, “If the Scanner Is Not Properly Connected,”  
for the steps to fix the problem.  
To check the status of the scanner:  
1. Put the mouse pointer on the scanner icon on the Windows taskbar.  
2. Click the icon with the right mouse button.  
The shortcut menu appears.  
   
CHECKING IT OUT  
15  
3. Choose About from the shortcut menu.  
A dialog box confirms that the scanner is connected properly. The  
About dialog box shown below is for the 7600 USB scanner. The  
dialog box for the 7600 Parallel scanner is similar.  
4. Click OK to close the dialog box.  
That’s it. Your scanner is ready to scan.  
See “Scanning By Pressing the OneTouch Buttons” on page 18.  
IF THE SCANNER IS NOT PROPERLY CONNECTED  
If the scanner icon on the Windows taskbar has a red “X” through it as  
shown in the figure, the scanner is not properly connected.  
Check the following possible problems:  
Is a cable loose or not plugged in securely? Inspect all cable connections.  
Make sure all the cables are plugged in securely.  
Is the scanner’s power light on? If it isn’t, plug the power adapter into  
another electrical outlet.  
Are you using an older computer that has 25-pin connectors for both  
serial and parallel ports? You may have plugged the scanner cable into  
a serial port instead of the parallel port. Remove the scanner cable  
from the serial port and plug the cable into the parallel port.  
If you are using the Visioneer OneTouch 7600 Parallel scanner, are other  
devices “daisy-chained” to the parallel port? If so, the scanner must be  
the first one connected to the computer (with the exception of a Zip  
   
16  
VISIONEER ONETOUCH 7600 SCANNER INSTALLATION GUIDE  
drive or SyQuest drive which must be connected directly to the  
computer and the scanner then connected to the drive). Plug the  
scanner into the computer’s parallel port first, then plug the next  
device into the scanner.  
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.  
Please see the Readme file in the PaperPort directory on your computer’s  
hard drive. The Readme file contains additional information that may  
help you diagnose problems connecting the scanner.  
To connect the scanner:  
1. After checking all of the above problems, place the mouse pointer  
on the scanner icon with the red X over it and click the right mouse  
button.  
The shortcut menu appears.  
2. Choose Connect from the shortcut menu.  
The software finds the scanner and makes the connections. The  
scanner icon will no longer have a red X through it, and you’re  
ready to begin scanning.  
If you try all the troubleshooting procedures described above and in the  
Readme file, and the scanner icon still has a red X through it, you may  
have a malfunctioning scanner. Please see the technical support card  
that you received with your scanner for the numbers to call to receive  
technical assistance.  
THREE WAYS TO SCAN

VISIONEER ONETOUCH 7600 SCANNER INSTALLATION GUIDE  
SCANNING BY PRESSING THE ONETOUCH BUTTONS  
Pressing a scanner button scans the item and then sends the image either  
to the printer to print, or to a software application on your computer.  
To scan with a button:  
Place an item to scan on the glass, face down, and press one of the  
scanner buttons.  
The scanner starts scanning the item. A message just above the

illustrated by this example of a photograph being scanned:  
When the scan is complete, the scanned image appears in the  
destination software.  
   
SCANNING FROM THE SCREEN  
19  
SCANNING FROM THE SCREEN  
Scanning from the screen is just like pressing a scanner button, except  
you click the button on the screen. The scanner scans the item and then  
sends the image either to the printer to print, or to a software  
application on your computer. This method of scanning is especially  
helpful if the scanner is not located close to your computer.  
To scan from the screen:  
1. Place an item to scan on the glass, face down, and click the scanner  
icon on the Windows taskbar.  
The scanner button panel appears on the screen.  
2. Click the button you want to use to scan.  
Clicking a button on the screen scans the item just like pressing a  
button on the scanner.  
The scanner starts scanning the item, the messages about the  
scanning appear just above the Windows taskbar, and the progress  
window shows the image as it is scanned. When the scan is  
complete, the scanned image appears in the destination software.

VISIONEER ONETOUCH 7600 SCANNER INSTALLATION GUIDE  
ABOUT THE ONETOUCH BUTTONS  
The OneTouch buttons are pre-configured to scan items at various  
settings, and then send the scanned image to a pre-selected software  
application. You can change the settings for each button except the  
Stop/Cancel button. See “Changing the Button Settings” on page 21.  
The following table lists the pre-configured settings of the scanner’s  
buttons:  
Button  
Pre-Configured Settings

3. If you haven’t defined a configuration yet, click the New button to  
create a new configuration. You can also select one of the predefined  
configurations and then click the Copy button to copy it.  
4. Click the Edit button.  
The dialog box for adjusting the scanning for the selected  
configuration appears.  
5. Enter a name for the new configuration.  
6. Adjust the scanning options that you want.

example, letters and memos are usually scanned in black and white.  
Select Grayscale to scan items such as documents containing  
drawings or black and white photographs. The scanning produces  
an image in varying shades of gray. Select Color to scan color  
photographs and other color items.

VISIONEER ONETOUCH 7600 SCANNER INSTALLATION GUIDE  
Resolution—Drag the slider to the right or left to adjust the dots  
per inch (dpi) of the resolution. The maximum resolution is 600  
dpi, the minimum is 50 dpi. The higher the dpi setting, the sharper  
and clearer the scanned image. However, higher dpi settings take  
longer to scan and produce larger files for the scanned images.  
Brightness and Contrast—Drag the sliders to the right or left to  
adjust the brightness and contrast of the scanned image.  
7. Click the Page Settings tab to adjust the scan page settings.  
Page Size—Choose one of the page sizes from the drop-down list.  
The outlines on the picture represent the various page sizes.  
Clicking on one of those outlines also selects it as the page size for  
the scan. If you select the Custom option from the drop-down list,  
boxes appear in place of the picture. Enter the horizontal and  
vertical page dimensions for your scan in those boxes.  
AutoCrop—Select this option to let the scanner automatically  
determine the size of the item being scanned. For example, if you  
put a photo in the middle of the glass, the scanner will  
automatically determine the size of the photo. When AutoCrop is  
selected, the scanner makes two passes—the first pass senses the  
item’s size, and the second pass scans the image. This option  
overrides the Page Size menu selection.  
DeScreen—Select this option when scanning a picture from a  
newspaper or magazine article, or other item that contains images  
with patterns or dots. Scans of patterns or dots sometimes have a  
CHANGING THE BUTTON SETTINGS  
27  
distorted or wavy appearance. The scanner scans the item to  
compensate for the patterns and dots, and produces a clearer image.  
The scanning may slow down a bit when this option is selected. You  
don’t need to select this option when scanning photographs.  
Gamma—Drag the slider to improve how the colors in a scanned  
image look on your monitor. Gamma correction allows you to  
achieve precise color matching. Because the computer cannot  
always transmit the exact color information to the hardware, you  
may have to make some color adjustments using the Gamma  
feature.  
The default Gamma setting works fine in most cases and normally  
does not need to be adjusted.  
8. Click OK.  
The Preferences dialog box reappears. Make sure the configuration  
you just defined is selected.  
9. Click OK on the Preferences dialog box.  
The new configuration and its adjusted settings now apply to the  
button.  
Note: If you select the Copy/Print or Fax button, the dialog box for  
editing and adjusting the settings will have a Device tab for selecting  
options for a printer or copier. See the Help for more information.

SCANNING FROM THE PAPERPORT SOFTWARE  
Instead of using the scanner’s buttons, you can scan directly from the  
PaperPort software. This is particularly helpful when you’re using  
PaperPort to file and save your scanned items.  
Note: You can also scan directly with other software that meets the  
Twain standards for scanning, which includes many graphics and  
imaging applications available for your computer. The following steps  
explain how to set up and scan from the PaperPort software but you  
use the same basic processes with other Twain software.  
To scan from PaperPort, you must first do a one-time-only set up of the  
software.  
To set up the PaperPort software with the scanner:  
1. If the PaperPort software isn’t currently running, double-click the  
PaperPort icon on the Windows desktop to start it. The PaperPort  
Desktop appears.  
2. From the File menu, choose Select Source. The Select Source  
dialog box appears, listing your Visioneer OneTouch 7600 scanner  
(as well as all other Twain devices installed on your computer).  
3. Choose the Visioneer OneTouch 7600 scanner option, then click  
Select.  
Note: You don’t need to set up the scanner again unless you change  
the source to some other Twain device, such as a digital camera.  
 
SCANNING FROM THE PAPERPORT SOFTWARE

SCANNING AN ITEM WITH THE TWAIN BUTTON  
The following procedure provides the basic steps for scanning an item  
using the Twain button in the PaperPort software. You can scan many  
types of items, from small business cards to A4-sized pages.  
Note: Your Visioneer OneTouch scanner is initially set to scan from  
the PaperPort software with the setting Color Document—Faster. To  
scan a black-and-white image, select one of the other settings. To scan  
at a higher resolution for a color image, select Color Document—  
Better Quality. However, scanning at a higher resolution creates a  
larger file size and takes longer to scan. To minimize the file size and  
the time required to get a better quality scan, select just the area of the  
item that you want to scan.  
To scan an item:  
1. Open the scanner cover, place the item face down onto the lower  
left edge of the scanner glass, and close the cover.  
2. If PaperPort isn’t running, double-click the PaperPort icon on the  
Windows Desktop to start it. The PaperPort Desktop appears.  
3. Click the Twain icon on the Command Bar, or choose Acquire  
from the File menu.  
Note: When scanning from other Twain software, choose Acquire  
from the File menu. Other Twain software usually will not have a  
Twain button.  
The Visioneer Scan Manager dialog box appears.

of scanned images, such as scanning for editing text or scanning in  
color. For more information about these settings, see “The  
Predefined Scan Settings” on page 32. If you don’t want to use one  
of these pre-set options, you can manually select the scan  
configuration options. Note that when you select a pre-set option  
scan configuration settings are for that pre-set option. You can also  
create your own custom configurations. See the Help information  
for details.

Res—This is the resolution setting for the scan in dots-per-  
inch (dpi). The higher the dpi, the sharper the image. But higher  
dpi settings also produce larger files sizes. Usually the higher  
resolution settings are used for precision work, such as photographs  
or fine artwork. Click the drop-down arrow and choose one of the  
resolution settings from the list.  
Size—The page size for the image. If you want to use one of those  
pre-set sizes, click the drop-down arrow and choose the size from  
the list. If you want to create a custom size, click on the picture  
window and drag the mouse. A dotted box on the window indicates  
the page size, and the two number boxes—with the vertical and  
horizontal symbols next to them—show the actual page size in  
inches. You can also enter the vertical and horizontal sizes in those  
two number boxes.  
AutoCrop—Select this option to let the scanner automatically  
determine the size of the item being scanned. For example, if  
you put a photo in the middle of the glass, the scanner will  
automatically determine the size of the photo. When AutoCrop  
is selected, the scanner makes two passes—the first pass senses the  
item’s size, and the second pass scans the image. This option  
overrides the selections for Size.  
Adv. Settings—Click this button to see advanced settings for  
scanning. See the Help information for details about the advanced  
settings.  
Note: For more details about the Scan Manager’s features, choose  
PaperPort Help Topics from the Help menu.

THE PREDEFINED SCAN SETTINGS  
Selecting the proper scan setting before final scanning provides the best  
results for a scanned item. The scan setting determines the sharpness of  
the item and the number of possible shades of gray or color. These  
selections also affect the speed of the scan and the file size.

ADJUSTING THE BRIGHTNESS AND CONTRAST  
Sometimes an item is scanned with the brightness and contrast set to be  
too light or too dark. For example, a note written with a light pencil  
may need to be scanned darker to improve legibility.  
You can adjust the brightness and contrast at which grayscale and color  
items are scanned. You can also adjust the brightness for black-and-  
white items. If an item is currently displayed in the preview area, the  
changes you make using the Brightness and Contrast control bars are  
reflected in the preview item.  
To adjust brightness and contrast:  
1. Click the Twain icon on the Command Bar, or choose Acquire  
from the File menu.  
The Visioneer Scan Manager dialog box appears.  
2. Click the Adv. Settings button on the Scan Manager.  
The Advanced Settings dialog box appears.
