Drivers for the Fujitsu fi-6140Z

Sunday, December 2, 2018 Articles, Tips Comments Off on Drivers for the Fujitsu fi-6140Z

Looking for drivers for the Fujitsu fi-6140Z Document Scanner? I was fortunate to find the TWAIN32 Drivers that support the listed Operating Systems from Microsoft. Since I manage 600 Dell computers running XP, Vista, 7, 8.1, and 10, and 4 different models of Fujitsu scanners, I make sure to use the same Windows 7 drivers so that I can rule out issues when I need to troubleshoot the computers or move from one machine to the next. I have tried updated drivers and saw issues on Windows 8 and 10 so I went back to the old Windows 7 drivers.

Install the Hardware
01. Do not plug in the data cable.
02. Do not plug in the power cable.
03. Skip to installing the drivers.
12. Install the power cable and power up.
13. Install the data cable and use it normally.

Installing The Drivers
04. Close all programs such as Microsoft Word
05. Create a C:\Scanner\Drivers folder on the C:\ partition.
06. Navigate to Fujitsu’s website for Windows 7 drivers and avoid newer versions.
07. Download and save both TWAIN32 Drivers called Ftal8mX1m.exe and Ftal8mX1m_R.exe into C:\Scanner\Drivers.
08. Execute Ftal8mX1m.exe using an account with Local Administrator rights.
09. Search for the extracted setup file in the C:\Scanner\Drivers subfolder then execute.
10. Follow the directions prompted on the screen by the installer.
11. Restart the computer once you (and shared users) save your open files.

Now that the Windows 7 drivers I linked above to are installed and the computer system restarted, connect the data cable to the scanner and computer then the power cord to the scanner and outlet and power on the scanner so that the OS can detect the new hardware.

For easy scanning daily, navigate to the Control Panel and right-click on the scanner in the Devices and Printers section, and choose to create a desktop shortcut. It will do so on the Desktop of the logged-in account. Rename the shortcut and move it to the Public Desktop folder with an Administrator account so all logged-in users will see the scanner, not just you then do a test scan with your scanning software.
