The HP ScanJet scanner can be connected to the PC using a Universal Serial Bus (USB)
or a Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) connection. Use only ONE of these
methods to connect the scanner.
Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface is available on newer PCs and is the easiest way
to connect the scanner, as it does not require you to install an interface card. USB has
its own type of cable, connectors, and software drivers.
Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) lets you attach high-performance
peripherals, such as the HP scanner, to the PC. A SCSI card must be present in the
PC. SCSI has its own type of cable, connectors, and software drivers.
When you run the scanning software installation program, the program checks to see if
the PC has a USB port or a SCSI port. If the PC has a USB port, you can use it to
connect the scanner to the PC, as long as the PC meets the requirements in the next
