Power up the computer by pressing the power button on the front of the CPU..
Insert your storage media (floppy disk or zip cartridge) into the appropriate drive.

If scanning one page or just a few pages, open the scanner lid, place the page in the upper right corner face-down on the scanner glass, and close the lid of the scanner.
If you have multiple pages to scan, place no more than 15 to 20 pages into the document feeder found on the lid of the flat bed scanner. Position the document so the text is facing up and the pages are even with the upper right hand corner of the feeder.
When using the document feeder make sure you position the lever found in the lower right hand corner of the lid in the #3 position.
