With your new Pandigital Wireless Scanner, you can scan printed photos, cards, documents, and
other items quickly and easily! No computer is necessary to scan – just choose your resolution
and slide the scanner across your image to create a JPG image file.
Your scanner features a built-in color LCD preview screen to confirm you’ve captured what you
intended, as well as Pandigital’s ScanRite
TM
roller tracking technology to guide your hand-held
scans perfectly to produce straight high-resolution digital copies.
Using the built in Wi-Fi, you can connect the scanner wirelessly to computers, electronic tablets
and smart phones for quick and convenient access to your scanned files, allowing you to easily
view, copy or move the files from the scanner to the connected device.
The feeder dock allows you to feed up to 8.5”x11” originals, and recharge the scanner’s batteries
by connecting the dock to the power adapter.
The graphics software included on the CD can be used to add text or other enhancements to your
scans, convert scans to PDF files, or to print your scans. Using the scanner’s Stitch mode, you
can scan large documents into 6 separate files and then use the included graphics software to
stitch them together to create panoramic photos. You can also open Facebook directly through
Presto! PageManager by using the link in the application toolbar, and then quickly upload your
scanned photos or documents.

The scanner’s built-in storage disk has approximately 128MB of space that can be used to
store scanned images. Scanned image files are automatically stored in the built-in storage
until it is recognized as full (i.e., less than 2MB remaining for the 300 DPI setting, less than
5MB remaining for the 600 DPI setting, and less than 15MB remaining for the 1200 DPI
setting).

The scanner includes a Lithium Ion rechargeable NP-45 Battery pack.
The battery is only needed for hand-held wand scanning. If the “Low Battery” message appears, your scanned
images may be lower quality and the scanner may malfunction. Recharge the battery as soon as possible.
When the scanner is off and engaged in the feeder dock, the feeder dock charges the battery.
When the scanner is off, you can charge the battery via microUSB cable connected to your computer (powered
on) or to a USB power adapter. The charging time is longer than when charging with the feeder dock.
The battery performance varies by size of original being scanned and various available settings.

To turn the scanner off, press and hold for three seconds.
If using a SD card (not included), you can now safely remove the SD card from the scanner.
The scanner has a power-saving feature which automatically turns the scanner off when it’s
left idle for a specified number of seconds (if not connected to a computer). To set the

Keep originals free from fingerprints, oil, dirt, and dust for optimum scanned image quality.
Scanning the same original in different orientations may produce scanned images that look
slightly different in color tones and brightness. This is not a malfunction.
This scanner supports output images in JPG and PDF formats. (The date & time attributes will
be a pre-assigned fixed value, unless you set the Date & Time option before scanning. See the
Date & Time section on page 25.)

The wand scan mode requires you to press to begin scanning an original, and then
press again to stop the scan.
Only the wand scan mode supports the “anti-mirror” feature.
In wand scan mode, if the “Low Battery” message appears on the LCD screen your
scanned images may be lower quality and the scanner may malfunction. Recharge the
battery as soon as possible.
Due to the nature of a handheld wand scanner, you may want to manually crop your image
with a graphic editing program. This added step allows you to restore the saved image to its
original size.
To use the image-stitching feature effectively, you should scan your originals with the right
edge of the original aligned against the left edge of the Stitch mark on the scanner. The
originals need to overlap by 2” (45mm) or more. You will use Presto! PageManager
software installed on your computer to complete the stitching process.
-F;@@9@J)I9AB)155:56),>FR)
Keep the original flat and level when feeding to prevent possible jamming.
The feeder dock’s sensor is triggered when you begin to insert an original aligned against
the left edge of the feed slot, and then the original begins to automatically feed, hesitates
and then completes the scan.
To prevent poor cropping effect, align original straight against left edge of the feeder slot,
align the Guide Slide against the right edge of the original, and ensure there is adequate
space behind the feeder dock for the original to complete the scan feed.
The feeder dock requires 5V 1.0A power adapter to operate and to charge the
rechargeable battery (when the scanner is off).
The battery is not required to operate the scanner when it is engaged in the feeder dock.

Using the scanner as a wand scanner without the feeder dock allows you to scan a larger variety
of documents, especially those that may not fit in the feeder dock (i.e., pages of a book). It also
allows you to scan vertically or horizontally across the original, which may help you scan book
pages easier.
Our ScanRite
TM
roller tracking technology makes it easy to keep the scanner steady to capture a straight high
quality scan.
For best scanning results, always place your original on a clean flat surface.
The battery is required to operate the scanner without the feeder dock.
If you want to scan a document vertically by sliding the scanner right-to-left (i.e., scanning book pages), you can
change the Orientation setting to Portrait so your saved images will be in the correct orientation rather than
rotated 90
o
left (see the “Orientation” section on page 22.)
Scanning the same original in different orientations may produce scanned images that look slightly different in
color tones and brightness. This is not a malfunction.
