Pro-82 buttons dead and won't reset!! Yikes!

reset it one more time and let the scanner boot before you do any thing else chill out for while dont be so egor

It's possible you have physically damaged it but not certain. One old engineers trick to reset anything microchip based is to unplug the device, both power and connection cable, and hold down the power/on button for 30 seconds (time it as it seems to take forever when you are waiting) this will discharge any static and reset the chip-set to defaults. With that done completely reinsert reinsert the negative tray/holder *before* reconnecting power and test it. No guaranties at this point but defiantly the place to start. Message back if this is no help.

Hi, It sounds as though you have managed to set the scanner to automatically break up originals. In your scanner driver (I'm not with one at the moment so I'm working from memory) locate the button that says 'Advanced'. When the new window appears look for a button that says 'Reset' or 'Default' It may be a menu item, I'm not sure.
Many scanners can be set to do multiple scans. this is usually indicated by a number of faint rectangles showing in different places in the preview scan. You just have to find the button that turns that feature off.

• Dirt or debris on the scanner lid
• Scratched or damaged scanner glass
• Poor internal connections
• Dirt or debris inside the product
• Damaged or faulty scanner bulb or parts

Performing a RESET will not clear/erase frequencies or other data programmed into the scanner. If the RESET doesn't work though, you may need to INITIALIZE the scanner. That procedure will clear all programmed data and return the scanner to its "as new" state. Need the manual for your PRO-82? You canb download/print it here:

You could reset the device, that usually resets everything - the downfall is that you will have to re-configure everything.

1. Right-click on the One Touch icon and choose Show Hardware from the pop-up menu.
2. The Hardware Properties dialog box opens and shows information about your Xerox DocuMate 152 scanner.
3. Click the Properties button.
4. To return the scanner to its factory settings, click Reset Device.
5. Click OK to save the changes and close the dialog box.

If this doesn't fix the problem please post a comment, I will do some more research into it.

Sounds like a tech problem internally, may need cleaning on the pot. A service center can fix it. Or could be an Ant problem? Check your Ant connection make sure they are good and not dirty. Mositure in our homes builds up inside and on all connection. 1200 grit Sand papers works well on ant connection. Or did you move the scanner? that will cause problems as well.

you may need to play with the squelch. and/also hold down the light/key button until the key goes away but mess with the squelch after you get rid of the lock. you want the squelch as far left without it stopping and making static noise

the scanner assembly is getting blocked somewhere internally due to dust collected in the assebly.or it can be due to any of the wire internally gone loose or cut slightly so this problem.
