How to use the scanner

This manual describes the operation of the HP Scanjet 3770 digital flatbed
scanner, including how to use the scanner, customer support, and installation
troubleshooting. For installation procedures, see the Setup Poster. For scanning
software procedures, see the HP Image Zone on-screen help.
This section presents an overview of the scanner and information about how to
use and care for the scanner.
Note If you have installed HP Windows® software from CD 2, the software
names in the documentation differ as follows from what was installed:
1) Your software is named HP Photo & Imaging instead of HP Image Zone;
2) Your picture management software is called HP Photo & Imaging Gallery
instead of HP Image Zone. There may be other terminology differences
between the software you installed and the documentation.

You can start scanning in one of three ways:
●
Scan from the buttons on the scanner lid
The buttons on the scanner lid provide shortcuts to frequently used scanning
functions. Descriptions for using the scanner-lid buttons are located in this
manual.
●
Scan from the HP Director
Scan from the HP Director software when you want more control of your
scan. The default Preview setting is on for scans initiated from the HP
Director, which gives you more controls to customize the scan.
To start the HP Director software, double-click the HP Director icon ( ) on
the desktop. The HP Director window appears. From this window you can
scan, view, or print images, use on-screen help, and more.
If the HP Director icon is not on the desktop, on the Start menu, point to
Programs or All Programs, point to HP, and then click HP Director.
●
Scan from other applications
You can bring an image directly into an open file in one of your applications if
the application is TWAIN- or WIA-compliant. Generally, the application is
compliant if it has a command such as Acquire, Scan, or Import New
Object. If you are unsure whether the application is compliant or what the
option is, see the documentation for that application.

Scan slides and negatives
Tips for scanning slides and negatives
●
To scan a transparency that was used for an overhead projector, place the
transparency on the scanner glass, place a white sheet of paper on top of the
transparency, and then scan as usual.
●
When scanning a 35 mm slide or negative, the scanner software
automatically enlarges the image to approximately 4 x 6 inches (10 x 15 cm).
If you want the final image to be larger or smaller, use the Resize tool in the
scanner software to set the scaling to the final size you want; the scanner will
scan the item at the proper resolution for the size you choose.

How to use the scanner
Warning Avoid placing items with sharp edges in the scanner. Doing so
can damage the scanner. Before placing an item on the scanner glass,
make sure the item is free of wet glue, correction fluid, or other substances
that can be transferred to the glass.
●
Clean the scanner glass
Disconnect the USB cable and power cable from the scanner.
Clean the glass using a soft, lint-free cloth sprayed with a mild glass cleaner,
drying the glass with a dry, soft, lint-free cloth.
Caution Use only glass cleaner. Avoid abrasives, acetone, benzene,
and carbon tetrachloride, all of which can damage the scanner glass.
Avoid isopropyl alcohol because it can leave streaks on the glass.
Do not spray the glass cleaner directly on the glass. If too much glass cleaner
is applied, the cleaner could run to the edges and damage the scanner.
When finished, reconnect the USB cable and power cable to the scanner.
Note For instructions on how to clean the underside of the scanner glass,
●
Clean the transparent materials adapter (TMA)
Clean the TMA with a dry, soft cloth. If necessary, lightly spray the cloth with
glass cleaner and wipe the TMA.

Troubleshooting

This section contains solutions for potential issues with the scanner and the
transparent materials adapter (TMA).
Frequently asked questions
This section contains answers to frequently asked questions.
How do I test my scanner hardware?
1
Ensure that the TMA cable on the scanner lid is connected to the back of the
scanner.
2
3
4
5
6
Ensure that the scanner is not connected to the computer.
Disconnect the USB cable and power cable from the scanner.
Ensure that the scanner power cable is still connected to the power source.
Press and hold the Scan( ) and Copy buttons ( ) on the scanner at the
same time while reconnecting the power cable to the scanner.
The TMA should turn on for three seconds and then turn off. After the TMA
turns off, the carriage in the scanner should move forward and backward, and
the scanner lamp should turn on. The scanner lamp should flash six times
while the carriage is still in motion.
7
To end the test, disconnect the power cable.
How do I turn off the lamp?
The scanner lamp should time out and turn off automatically after a period of
inactivity (about 14 minutes). If it does not turn off automatically, do the following:
1

From the HP Director, click Settings.
Select Scan Settings & Preferences.
Select Scan Preferences.
Click the Quality vs. Speed tab.
Turn off Extended lamp to turn the scanner lamp off after 14 minutes of
inactivity. If this option is on, the scanner lamp turns off after 1 hour of
inactivity.
How do I turn off the scanner?
Normally you do not need to turn off the scanner because after a period of
inactivity (about 14 minutes), the scanner reduces to a low-power mode. If you
need to turn off the scanner completely, disconnect it from the power source
(electrical outlet or surge protector).

Troubleshooting
How do I scan text for editing?
The scanner uses optical character recognition (OCR) to convert text on a page to
text that you can edit on your computer. The OCR software is installed
automatically when you install the HP Image Zone software.
To select OCR settings, complete the following steps:
1
2
Open the HP Director software.
Click Settings, click Scan Preferences, and then select Button Settings.
Note If you are starting the scan from the scanner lid button, click the Scan
button tab. If you are starting the scan from the HP Director, click the
Scan Document button (Director) tab.
3
Click Modify Scan Document Settings, and then click the Editable Text
Settings tab.
Two formatting options are available:
–
Retain page formatting. When you select this option, the text blocks,
tables, and graphics are re-created in the same place, and the word and
paragraph formatting are maintained. This might make editing more
difficult because the software saves the columns in frames, with no text
flow from one column to the next. Select the Use columns when
possible check box to retain columns that are easier to edit. Most users
choose this option. The text flows from one column to the next, allowing
for easier editing.
–
Do not retain page format. Select this option for flowed text. This
creates a file with continuous text. This is recommended for text that you
want to edit and reformat for other purposes.
Scanned text might not appear on your computer exactly as it appeared on the
original, especially if the original contains faint or smudged text. For example,
some characters might be incorrect or missing. As you edit the text, compare the
scanned text against the original, and then make corrections as necessary.
Scanner installation or setup issues
This section contains solutions for installation and setup issues.
Check your computer
●
Ensure that your computer meets the minimum system requirements that are
listed on the scanner box.
●
If you do not have enough hard-disk space, remove unnecessary files.
Use administrative privileges
If you are installing the scanner on a Microsoft® Windows® 2000 or XP system,
you must be logged on as an Administrator. See your operating system help for
how to log on as an Administrator.
