If you do not have this accessory, skip this section and go to the next
section entitled, “Scan Viewer screen”.
The Kodak Photo Selector Accessory allows you to scan pages from
your photo albums or scrapbooks without removing the photos from the
page or removing the page protector. Using the Kodak Legal Flatbed
Accessory or the Kodak A3 Flatbed Accessory the sof tware will identify
and select separate images within the original flatbed scanned image.
These are collectively referred to as separated images and the
individual image selections as selection frames.
After the images are separated and saved, you can use the photo
editing options to enhance your image, remove red eye, etc.
Original Images pane — displays the original image of the album pa ge
scanned from the flatbed. The photos are automatically identified and
marked with a blue selection frame.
Selected Images pane — displays the individual images that have
been separated from the original scanned image along with the total
image count. Any selection frame changes that you make on the
original image will be displayed in this pane. For example, if you delete
an image selection frame from the Original Image pane, the image will
be deleted from the Selected Images pane. You can rearrange the
images in this pane to the order you want them returned to the main
program by left-clicking on the image and placing it in the desired
position.

Scan Settings screen The Scan Settings screen a llows you to change th e default settings (as
shown) that are used in the scanning process.
Scan as — select either Color or Grayscale.
NOTE: Color scanning is recommended for most photos, including
black and white and grayscale photos, so KODAK Perfect
Touch and Sharpen processing may be applied to the scanned
images. Use Grayscale scanning for exception processing if
color scan results are not what you desired.
Batch Scan Mode — select one of the following batch scan modes:
•Front Side — captures the front side of the photo that is in the input
tray. This is the recommended mode for photos.
•Back Side — captures the back side of the photo that is in the input
tray.
•Two Sided — captures both sides of the photo as two separate
image files labeled A and B.
NOTE: Photos should always be scanned face up, with the tops
pointing down into the scanner.
Transport timeout — allows you to set the amount of time the scanner
will wait after the last photo enters the transport before the transport
timeout action is taken. You can specify a time delay setting from 1 to
20 seconds to allow more time to insert the next photo or document into
the current batch.
Flatbed Scan Mode — this option is only visible if you have the Kodak
Photo Selector Accessory. If you do have this accessory, check Enable
Photo Selector to enable this option to directly send the image
scanned from the flatbed to the Photo Selector Accessory to complete
the flatbed scan. For more information, see the section entitled, “Photo
Selector screen” earlier in this chapter.
A-61601 September 2015 3-13
Resolution — allows you to select the dots per inch (d pi), which affect s
the size of the image. The options are: 300, 600 and 1200 dpi. The
default is 300 dpi. In most cases, 300 d pi is sufficient. Selecting 600 dpi
or 1200 dpi increases scanning and processing time.
NOTE: 1200 dpi is disabled if TIFF file format is selected.
File Format/Compression — select one of the following settings for
file format and compression.
•JPEG/Best — optimum compression, best image quality. Creates a
smaller file size than JPEG/Superior. Select JPEG/Best if you want
standard size reprints of scanned image files.
•JPEG/Superior — minimum compression, superior image quality.
Creates a file that is 5 to 10 times larger than JPEG/Best
compression, which will impact perfo rman ce. Select JPEG/Superior
if you want to reprint enlargements of scanned image files.
•TIFF/None — no compression. Creates a file size that is 2 to 8 times
larger than JPEG/Superior. Select TIFF/None for archival scanning.
NOTES:
• Any order that includes TIFF image files cannot be burned to a Kodak
Picture CD.
• 1200 dpi resolution is disabled for TIFF images. Do not scan photos
larger than 8 x10 inches as TIFF files.
Sharpen Images — sharpening is applied as th e images are scanned.
The options are:
•None: no sharpening will be done. This is the default.
•Low: low amount of sharpening applied.
•High: high amount of sharpening applied.
NOTE: Low is the recommended sharpening setting in most cases
where sharpening is desired. This option is not recommended
for grayscale images.
Restore default settings — clicking this button will return all scan
settings on this screen to their default values as following:
•Scan as: Color
•Batch Scan Mode: Front Side
•Transport timeout: 3 seconds
•Resolution: 300 dpi

3-14 A-61601 September 2015
Image Cleaner Tool — when checked, the Picture Saver System will
make every attempt to eliminate any streaks in the image during the
scanning process. Applying the Image Cleaner Tool does not slow
down the scanning process. Frequently streaks in images are caused
because the scanner has accumulated dust and dirt. Be sure your
scanner is clean to help prevent streaks in images.
NOTE: The Image Cleaner tool is not applied to flatbed scans and front
side scans.
KODAK Perfect Touch — if you check the Apply to Both Sides
checkbox, KODAK Perfect Touch will be applied to both sides of any
photo that you scan two-sided whe n applying KODAK Perfect Touch. If
you do not check this box, it will only be applied to the side of th e photo
facing up. In most cases where the back of the photo has only text
written on it, KODAK Perfect Touch will have no ef f ect on the ba ck side
of the image; running KODAK Perfect Touch only on the front side will
reduce processing time.
For single-sided scanning, KODAK Perfect Touch will always be
applied to the side of the photo that you scan.
Crop Border — allows you to set the amount of cropping at the
boundaries of the image.
•Normal: automatically crops to the edge of the scanned image.
•Aggressive: produces an image that contains just the photo by
eliminating any residual border. If the image has rough or uneven
edges, setting Aggressive cropping may eliminate any gaps where
the background would show through. There is a possibility that a
small amount of image area will be lost.
Fill Border — allows you to create a border 0.02 inches wide around
the edge of the image. This border will be ad ded inside the image area;
it will replace image content. You can choose:
• None
• Black
•White
You can change the width of the border. Refer to the section,
Application Configuration in Chapter 7 for more information.

Handling guidelines.........................................................................4-5
Scanning your photos.....................................................................4-6
Getting your scanner
ready to scan Even though your scanner can be tilted to an upward and downward
position, it is strongly recommended that you scan your photos in the
downward position.
1. Be sure the scanner is on and ready to scan (green LED/Start
button will be on and constant).
2. Tilt and rotate the scanner away from you to place your scanner in
the downward position.
IMPORTANT: When using the tilt feature, be sure the scanner cover
is closed.
4-2 A-61601 September 2015
3. Adjust the side guides (by sliding them in or out) to accommodate
the size of the photos you are scanning.
4. Adjust the input tray and output tray to accommodate your scanning
needs.
• The output tray can be extended to accommodate photos up to
14 inches in length.
A-61601 September 2015 4-3
Getting your photos
ready to scan 1. When organizing your photos for scanning, stack the photos so the
edges are aligned and centered in the input tray. This allows the
feeder to introduce photos into the scanner one at a time.
2. Remove all staples and paper clips before scanning. Staples and
paper clips on photos may damage the scanner and photos.
3. Any inks and correction fluids on the photos must be dry before
scanning is started.
4. Place the photos you want to scan in the input tray of the scanner.
Be sure the photo(s) you want to scan are face up (see below).
• If you encounter problems feeding large stacks of photos, place
the first 25 photos in the tray and start scanning; then place the
rest of the stack in the tray on top of the small stack of photos.
• You may have to tap the bottom of the stack into the feeder
periodically to ensure the photos feed properly.
4-4 A-61601 September 2015
NOTE: If you want to keep your photos in a specific order, do the
following:
Take your photos and place them face up o n the t a ble. Take the
first batch from the top of this stack and place them face up in
the scanner. Select Batch Scan. When the stack is completely
scanned and the scanner has stopped, place another stack in
the scanner and select Batch Scan. When you are using this
method, the scanner should be allowed to stop af ter each batch
is scanned, otherwise the photos will not be in the desired order.
Alternatively, take your photos and place them face down on the
table. Take your first batch from the top of this stack and place
them face up in the scanner.
For example, if your stack has 9 photos, you would place them
face down on the table so that photo 1 is facing the table, and
the back of photo 9 is on the top of the stack. If you take the first
5 photos on the to p of this st ack (9,8,7, 6,5) and pla ce them face
up in the scanner and scan them, as the scanner emp ties, place
the rest of the photos (4,3,2,1) in the scanner face up.
When the stack is completely scanned, the sof tware will reorder
the image files so that photo 1 will be image 1 and photo 9 will
be image 9, etc. When you are using this method, do not stop
the scanner during scanning, otherwise the photos will not be in
the desired order. You may want to increase the transport
timeout using this method.

Handling guidelines Before scanning a batch of photos, review the following guidelines to
save time and improve efficiency. Refer to Chapter 6, Achieving Good
Quality Images for detailed information regarding photo handling and
the importance of scanner cleanliness.
•Handle photos with care! Be sure your hands are clean or wear
clean white cotton gloves. Avoid touching the photographic surface.
• Fragile or precious photos should be scanned using the Kodak A3
Flatbed Accessory or Kodak Legal Flatbed Accessory to eliminate
the risk of damage from automated handling.
• Use the scanner in a clean, dust-free environment.
• Cover the scanner when it is not in use.
• Avoid unnecessary bending and flexing of photos.
• Due to copyright laws, any professionally taken photos that are
copyrighted cannot be scanned without written permission from the
owner.
• Two-sided photo scanning:
- If you have a batch of photos where both sides of some photos
need to be scanned, group these photos togeth er and scan them
in a separate batch. This will save time deleting unwanted blank
images.
- If you need to rescan one side of a two-sided photo, select the
side you want to rescan, otherwise select Two-sided to rescan
both sides.
• If you have a batch of photos that need color enhancement,
brightness adjustment, etc., group these photos together. When you
select KODAK Perfect Touch after scanning, the application
software enhances the entire folder of images at the same time.
• When you delete an image in a display of 16 on the Enhance Pictur e
screen, the display will shift to include the first image from the next
group of 16 images to be displayed.
4-6 A-61601 September 2015

6. Place a batch of photos in the scanner’s input tray (for a Batch
Scan) or as a single photo on the flatbed platen (for a Flatbed
Scan). Be sure the photos you want to scan are facing up properly.
NOTES:
• For best feeding performance always scan the photos with the
scanner body tilted to the downward position and with photos
face up and oriented as shown below.
• Photos will be fed into the scanner from the bottom of the stack.

A-61601 September 2015 5-7
Replacement
procedures Kodak Scanners use replaceable tires that can feed a wide range of
document types, sizes and thicknesses. Tire life and performance will
vary based on the customer’s document set, the frequency of cleaning
the paper path and tires, and following the recommended schedule for
changing tires. Nominal tire life is approximately 60,000 to 125,000
photos/pages. Usage figures are not guaranteed. Customer-operating
environments, document type, the condition of photos being scanned,
and not following the recommended cleaning and replacement
procedures, can cause the life of the consumables to vary. You should
change the tires if you notice an increase in multiple feeds, stoppages,
or a decrease in feeder performance that is not resolved by following
the cleaning procedures.
NOTES:
• Before beginning replacement procedures, disconnect the electrical
power.
• Certain paper types (such as carbonless paper or newsprint), failure
to clean regularly, and/or use of non-recommended cleaning solvents
can shorten roller life.
Replacing the separation
module and tires 1. Push the separation module up to snap out and lift it out of position.
• If you are replacing the separation module, insert the new
separation module by aligning the tabs with the slots and
snapping it into position.

Scanning
environment Dirt and dust can hinder photo scanning operations by adding streaks
to digital images. Dirt and dust can also promote scratching of photos,
both during and after scanning.
Follow these recommendations to keep your scanning environment as
clean as possible:
• Vacuum the scanner and the surrounding area frequently.
• Keep your scanning environment as free from dirt and dust as
possible. Use care when dusting surfaces around the scanner.
Dusting quickly and carelessly just redistributes dust in other
surrounding areas.
• Use the dust cover when the scanner is not in use. When removing
the dust cover from the scanner, if the dust cover has accumulated
dust, carefully remove the dust cover and shake it free of dust in a
location away from the scanner.
• Use the scanner in an area where the relative humidity is at least
50%. Dry environments leads to static which promotes the
accumulation of dust.
Handling
photographs Be sure your photos are clean before scanning them. Scanning dirty
photos may cause more dirt and dust to accumulate in the scanner. To
minimize dirt and dust build-up in the scanner and prevent possible
streaking, consider the following:
•Wear gloves — wearing cotton gloves while handling photographs
may reduce the oils from your hands getting on the photos and
minimize the amount of dirt and dust that collects in the scanner.
•Cleaning photos — gently vacuum older prints that appear to be
dusty. An alternative approach to cleaning photos is to use a
microfiber cloth (included with the Brillianze Deta iler wipes) or similar
wipes available from a photo retailer, which are lint-free, ultra-soft
disposable non-abrasive wipes. They are safe to use on emulsions,
optics, scanners and CD’s. Dust should always be removed in a way
that will not harm the original photo.
6-2 A-61601 September 2015
•Adhesives — sticky substances such as glue and other album-
related adhesives on photos, can be transferred to the imaging area
of the scanner. Remove the adhesive with appropriate cleaners.
Photos with adhesive substances can also be scanned from the
Kodak A3 or Legal Flatbed Accessory thus preventing these
substances from gathering in the scanner.
•Uncurling photos — photos that have significant curl may not
transport ef fectively through the scanner. If possible, stacks of photos
may be safely uncurled before scanning.
NOTE: Photos that are severely curled can either be rotated 90
degrees so the curl is not in the direction of the transport or
scanned from the Kodak A3 or Legal Flatbed Accessory.
•Fanning photos — for reliable feeding, fan the photos before
scanning.
• Always place a blank placeholder top sheet on top of the stack of
photos being scanned. This top sheet protect s the top photo from tire
marks as the last photo before the top sheet is fed into the scanner.
This top sheet is a good place to record customer information since it
will be scanned with the photos.
• Curled or folded edges on the end of photos being scanned may
cause a jam and/or a tear in the photo. It is recommended that you
scan these types of photos facedown or on one of the Kodak Flatb ed
accessories.
A-61601 September 2015 6-3
Keeping your
scanner clean For best scanning results it is suggested that you frequently perform a
quick cleaning sequence in between your routine, thorough cleaning
procedures. This level of cleaning can be done frequently, perhaps as
often as every 10 0 prints or when streaks appear on an image(s). Refer
to Chapter 5, Maintenance for detailed cleaning procedures.
To do a quick cleaning:
1. Open the scanner cover and look at the imaging area for any
noticeable dust particles.
2. Wipe the imaging area with a microfiber cloth to remove any loose
dust particles.
3. After wiping the glass, re-inspect for any visible dust particles.
4. Close the scanner cover and evaluate the subsequent scans. If
streaking or other problems remain, it may be necessary to do a
more thorough cleaning. You can:
• Wipe the imaging area with Brillianize Detailer wipes. These
wipes provide an excellent, alcohol-free cleaning process. This
two-step process includes a wet de-static wipe and a dry silicon-
based polish that leaves the scanner with a clean, clear, anti-
static finish.
• Run a transport cleaning sheet through the scanner to pick up
loose dust particles, especially on the rollers. Depending on how
dirty the scanner is, these sheets can be used several times.
Discard the cleaning sheet when it is very dirty.
• For more extensive cleaning, see Chapter 5.
6-4 A-61601 September 2015
Photo scanning For the best scanning results the following is suggested:
• Place your photos face-up in the input tray. This orientation
minimizes scratching of the print emulsion.
• The Kodak Pictu re Saver System Scanner is shipped with the Kodak
Gentle Photo Sep a ration Module and with the pre-separation pad un-
installed. If you encounter problems when feeding photos through the
scanner, especially curled photos, you can install the pre-separation
pad and/or install the Kodak Picture Saver Standard Separation
Module. For pre-separation pad installation procedures, see
“Replacing the pre-separation pad” in Chapter 5, Maintenance. For
instructions on replacing the separation module, see “Replacing the
separation module and tires” also in Chapter 5.
IMPORTANT: Use caution when scanning photos with the pre-
separation pad installed. Internal testing has shown a
higher risk of scratching on the prints.
Reducing streaks The Kodak Picture Saver Scanning System has been enhanced to
reduce the occurrence of streaks in your images. The best method to
obtain streak-free images is to keep the scanner imaging area clean.
The Kodak Picture Saver Scanner has been designed with an open
imaging area for the front images. The Picture Saver Scanning System
software provides an option called Image Cleaner tool for the back
sides of the images. When this option is checked, the software will
attempt to remove any streaks that may occur in a scanned image from
the dust in the scanner. In most cases, corrections are either
undetectable or very hard to detect. However, based on the size of the
streak and the image content where the streak exists, there may be a
slightly observable correction artifact remaining. In almost all cases,
this correction artifact is preferable to the actual streak.
Monitoring Streaks — review images on the Scan Viewer screen and
if streaks are detected, pull the rest of the photos from the feeder to
stop the scanner. It is best to scan photos in smaller batches
(approximately 50) then rescan these images as necessary.
A-61601 September 2015 6-5
If streaking is still apparent in your images, clean the open imaging
guide area in your scanner.
Using an anti-static brush (similar to the brush shown in the illustration
below), gently brush the open imaging guide area to remove dust and
debris.
Use a Brillianize Detailer Wipe to clean the closed imaging guide.
Banding Banding can occur when photos are curled in landscape orient ation and
fed through the scanner. If you experience an issue with curled photos
that generate horizontal bands on images, it is suggested that you
rotate the photos by 90 degrees and feed the photos in the scanner so
the curl is not in the direction of the transport. This may eliminate or
minimize the banding.
NOTE: It is suggested that you feed photos top first to minimize
banding in light areas at the top of photos.
Place a blank placeholder top sheet on top of the st ack of photos being
scanned. This top sheet can reduce banding and also protects the top
photo from tire marks as the last photo before the top sheet is fed into
the scanner. This top sheet is a good place to record customer
information since it will be scanned with the photos.

the feed rollers can grasp the first photo and st art the feeding process, or
use the tilt button to rotate the scanner in the downward position.
Application display windows and
screens are distorted Check the dpi settings in the Monitor Display Properties. The settings
should be set to Normal size, 96 dpi with 32-bit color.
No images are being displayed • Be sure the side you want to scan is facing upward (not facing the input
tray). For more information, see the section entitled, “Getting your
photos ready to scan” in Chapter 4, Scanning Photos.
Images are not being cropped correctly • Images are not being cropped correctly from the batch scanner.
Rescan and adjust the side guides for the width of the photos you are
scanning.
• Images are not being cropped correctly from the flatbed. Try placing a
contrasting background behind the photograph and rescan.

A-61601 September 2015 7-3
Installation issues • Unless you changed the default at installation, scanned images can
be found at C:\Scanned_Pictures. These images can now be
handled in a variety of ways: uploaded to a photo management
system, burned to CD/DVD, printed, emailed, etc.
• The Picture Saver Scanning System uses Microsoft .NET Framework
2.0. If .NET Framework 2.0 is not installed on the PC, it will be
installed during installation.
• If a security software application is installed on the PC, you may be
asked whether you want to allow or deny installation of the Picture
Saver Scanning System. Select Allow or Yes. If you inadvertently
select Deny or No, open the security software application and set the
permission to Allow the installation of the Picture Saver Scanning
System.

more than five times, contact Technical Support.
Application issues • If the scanner encounters E9 Document Jams when scanning at
higher resolutions (600 or 1200 dpi) and the PC’s RAM is less than
3GB, then the memory should be increased to the required 3GB
RAM for high resolution scanning.
Conflicts with other
applications Some image viewers and backup programs that monitor the hard drive
for new image files may access files in the ou tput folder while in use by
the Picture Saver Scanning System. This may cause functions
(Retouch, KODAK Perfect Touch, Rotate and Auto-Rotate) to not work
properly. Turn off watched folder and backup synchronization
functionality for other image products when scanning photos or
uninstall the products. The HP TouchSmart Cyberlink Media Library
Service (CLMLSvc.exe) and Western Digital SmartWare and Memeo
Sync backup software are known to cause problems.

Application
configuration The Picture Saver Scanning System may be configured by modifying
the PrintScan.ini file in the directory specified below for your particular
Windows operating system. You can change the location for the output
TIFF and JPG files (Target_Path) and adjust the folder size for burning
CDs, Kodak Picture CDs or DVDs. The maximum folder size can be
changed by specifying a new value for the CDFolderSize,
PCDFolderSize and DVDFolderSize parameters in the PrintScan.ini
file.
A3 and Legal Flatbed scanner rotation may be set using the
FlatbedRotation parameter.
Reversing the order of the photo faceup scans may be enabled/
disabled using the ReverseFaceUp parameter.
The Scan Viewer may be enabled/disabled using the ShowViewer
parameter. The Scan Viewer refresh rate may be slowed down using
the ViewerDelay parameter. This will cause each image to remain
displayed on the screen longer, therefore not all of the images sca nned
are displayed.
The width of the fill border can be changed using the FillSize parameter.
The default values for other para mete rs are preset to optimal values or
set by the Scan Settings screen and generally do not need to be
modified.
Additional guidance for changing specific parameters may be found in
the PrintScan.ini file.

Data removal It is the responsibility of the operators of the Kodak Picture Saver
Scanning System to backup or delete customer orders and files from
the hard drive as needed. Deleting files using the delete optio ns on the
Administrator System Settings screen or Windows Explorer and then
emptying the recycle bin performs a standard Windows file delete and
does not completely remove the files from the PC. A file shredder or
eraser should be used to completely remove files and folders so they
may not be recovered or restored from the hard drive.

How to obtain Limited Warranty service
Kodak Scanners are supplied with information on unpacking, setup, installation and operation. Care ful reading of the User’s
Guide will answer most of the technical questions the end user might have regarding proper installation, operation and
maintenance of the product. However, should additional technical support be required, you may visit our website at:
www.kodakalaris.com/go/disupport or contact:
Response Center: (800) 822-1414

Before placing the call, the eligible purchaser sho uld have the Kodak Scanner model number, part number, serial number and
proof of purchase available. The eligible pu rchaser should also be prepared to provide a description of the problem.
Response Center personnel will assist the end user in resolving the problem over the phone. The end user may be asked to run
some simple, self-diagnostic tests and report the resulting status and error code messages. This will assist the Response
Center in determining if the problem is the Kodak Scanner or another component and if the problem can be resolved over the
phone. If the Response Center determines a hard ware problem exists that is covered either under the Limited Warranty or a
purchased Maintenance Agreement, a Return Material Authorization Number (RMA) will be assigned as needed, a se rvice
request will be initiate d and repair or replacement procedure s wi ll follow.
Packaging and shipping guidelines
Purchaser must ship all warranty returns in a method that guarantees full protection of the product from shipping damage.
Failure to do so will void the Kodak Scanner warranty. Alaris advises the purchase r to keep the original box and packing
materials for storing or shipping. Alaris is not responsible for issues related to shipping damage. The purchaser must return only
the Kodak Scanner. Prior to shipment, purchaser must remove and retain all “add-on” items, (i.e. adapters, cables, software,
manuals, etc.). Alaris accepts no responsibility for these items and they will not be returned with the repaired or replacement
Kodak Scanner. All products should be returned to Alaris in the original shipping container, or an authorized packaging box for
the units being returned. Purchaser must install the shipping restraint before the Kodak Scanner is shipped. When the original
packaging is not available, contact Kodak Alaris’ Response Center at (800) 822-1414 for part numbers and replacement
packaging ordering information.
Return procedure
Eligible purchasers seeking services for Kodak Scanners covered under this Limited Warranty must obtain a Return Material
Authorization number (“RMA”) by calling (800) 822-1414 and within ten (10) business days from the date of issuance of the
RMA must return the Kodak Scanner to th e address designated in the RMA at the end user’s own expense and risk, in
compliance with Kodak Alaris’ current Packaging and Shipping Guidelines.
Any defective products or parts replaced by Alaris become the property of Alaris.
Customer responsibility
BY REQUESTING SERVICE, THE ELIGIBLE PURCHASER ACKNOWLEDGES THE TERMS OF THE LIMITED WARRANTY,
INCLUDING THE DISCLAIMER AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY PROVISIONS. PRIOR TO SEEKING SERVICE, THE END
USER MUST BACK-UP ANY DATA OR FILES THAT MAY BECOME DAMAGED OR LOST. ALARIS IS, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST OR DAMAGED DATA OR FILES.
Warranty Service descriptions
Alaris offers a range of service programs to support its Limited Warranty and to assist with the use and care of the Kodak
Scanner (“Service Methods”). A Kodak Scanner represents an important investment. Kodak Scanners provide the productivity
needed to stay competitive. The sudden loss of this productivity, even temporarily, could seriously affect the ability to meet
commitments. Downtime can be very expensive, not just in the cost of the repair but also in time lost. To help alleviate these
problems, Alaris may use one of the service methods listed below, depending upon product type, in providing service under its
Limited Warranty.
Included with selected Kodak Scanners is a Limited Warranty Registration card and a Limited Warranty Summary card. The
Limited Warranty Summary card is specific by model. The Limited Warranty Summary card contains important warranty
information, including th e model number and the Limited Warranty. Refer to the Limited Warranty Summary card to determine
the available Service Methods applicable to the particular Kodak Scanner.
If the Limited Warranty Registration card or Limited Warranty Summary card cannot be located, additional information may be
obtained about the product, including updated warranty and service program information and restrictions, online at
www.kodakalaris.com/go/disupport.
To avoid service delays, Alaris urges end users to complete and return the enclosed Limited Warranty Registration Card at the
first opportunity. If you cannot locate the Limited Warranty Registration card, you may register online at:
www.kodakalaris.com/go/disupport.
Alaris also provides a variety of service programs that may be purchased to assist with the use and care of the Kodak Scanner.
Alaris is committed to providing its customers with quality, performance, reliability and service under the Limited Warranty.
A-61601 September 2015 B-3

For the selected Kodak Scanner, and after the Response Center verifies a hardware problem, a service call will be opened and
logged. An Alaris Field Engineer will be dispatched to the product location to perform repair service if the product is located
within the contiguous forty-eight (48) United States, in cert ain areas of Alaska and Hawaii, and if there are no security, safety or
physical requirements that would restrict the Field Engineer’s access to the scanner. Fo r additional information on service
areas, visit our website at: www.kodakalaris.com/go/docimaging. On-Site Service will be provided between the hours of 8 a.m.
