DIP switch 2 settings
DIP switch 2 determines the scanner operation normally required
for the direct print function. For normal xanning operations, your
scanner software sets these scanner functions and overrides the
current DIP switch settings. Therefore, except for the direct print
function, you are unlikely to change these switches from the
factory settings.

Installation / Support Tips
Software
1.
When operating the EWOCIC scanner with an IBM
compatible computer, you must install the following:
o Software that supports the ES-3WC scanner or Epson’s
Epscan II scanner program.
2.
When operating the ES-3WC scanner with an Apple
Macintosh computer, you must install the following:
o S&were that supports the ES300C scanner or Epson’s
Epscan II scanner program.
Note: To achieve the best final image, you may need tc make
multiple scans at various scanner settings.
set up
if you are using the scanner with an IBM-compatible computer,
connect the interface cable to the bidirectional parallel port on
the computer. Designate the interface board on the computer
as LPT2. Some systems may require that a bidirectional parallel
port be installed.
Notez The parailel cable must be a bidirectional cable.
If you are using the scanner with a Macintosh computer, install
the SCSI interface board in the interface board slot. Then
connect the interface cable from the computer to the SCSI
connector on the scanner.
