CanoScan Toolbox Notes to User

Version 4.6.1.2

1. RELEASE INFORMATION

- Make sure that you have adequate disk space available when scanning large documents at high resolutions. For instance, scanning a full page color document at 600 dpi requires a minimum of 300MB of available disk space.

- When CanoScan Toolbox is displayed behind another application or dialog box, main window of CanoScan Toolbox may not appear in front when you push the scanner push button.

- Please use the [Small Fonts] option for the display font. (Use [Normal size] in Windows XP)
CanoScan Toolbox may not display correctly with other font sizes. To adjust this setting, open the Windows Control Panel and select[Display], click the [Settings] tab, click the [Advanced] button, click the [General] tab, and select [Small Fonts] in the font size list box.

- CanoScan Toolbox does not operate correctly on operating systems that support double-byte languages, such as Japanese and Chinese, etc.
 
- If the scanner is connected to another USB port on the computer when running Windows 2000 or Windows XP, even when the scanner button is pressed, a dialog box for selecting the application is displayed without starting the Toolbox.
In this case, start the Toolbox, click the [Defaults] button in the [Settings] screen, and reboot the computer.



2. APPLICATION NOTES
