bar pushed in, use your left hand and rotate the bar forward to flip the 
background plate to the opposite color.
7. Remove your right hand to release the bar and lock the background 
plate in position. Verify that the bar is locked in place before 
continuing.

until it is securely locked. Do not slam down the door.
9. Turn the scanner’s power back on.
10. Open the User Utility and perform a shading adjustment before 
scanning.
The scanner’s default background color is black, therefore it has 
never been calibrated to use the white background. When you 
change the background color to white the first time, you should 
perform a shading adjustment. Please see “Shading Adjustment” on 
page 111 for instructions.
