If the scanner's power supply is momentarily decreased, the scanner's motor can lock and may overheat. CPSC and Visioneer have not received any reports of injuries from customers experiencing an overheat condition.
Consumers use scanners to store documents in personal computers to be accessed on-screen.
The Compaq Scanner Keyboard measures approximately 2.29 inches high, 20.75 inches wide, and 8.89 inches deep. Consumers scan materials such as pictures or charts by feeding the material into a slot on the front of the scanner. The scanned image appears on the computer screen as the material is fed through the scanner. When the image has been completely scanned, the material exits out of the top of the scanner. Consumers can download a software solution from Visioneer's Worldwide Web site that will significantly reduce the chance of lock-up.
