A reliable first scan begins with a stable place to work. This section helps an engineer or workshop owner check the computer, bench, lighting, power, cable route, turntable clearance, and supplied accessories before calibration starts.
The guides use model-specific manuals for required distances and computer specifications. They also show how to record the actual workstation, identify one changed variable during troubleshooting, and preserve a repeatable setup. The aim is a visible pass or a specific correction, rather than a general impression that the desk appears ready.
Start here
Begin with the workspace checklist before opening protective packaging. Continue with the short PC and bench test once the scanner, cables, and calibration artifact have been inventoried. Keep the resulting photos and configuration record with the first raw project.
Scanner performance figures are not copied from product pages. Any timing, resource load, or connection result described in a shop record should come from that installation under its stated mode and software version.
