Making the Connection
A major difference from other scanners is that the connection to the PC is made via USB, and not a serial cable. The RS scanners do not supply
this cable as part of the accessories, but there are places to obtain them. Please see the Connecting scanners via USB article for tips
on installation and common problems and resolution.
