To scan film strips or slides, you need to remove the document mat from the scanner cover. This uncovers the transparency unit window so your scanner can use it to scan your film or slides. 1. Open the scanner cover and gently slide up the document mat to remove it.
Placing Film in the Holder
1. Open the cover of the 35mm film strip holder.
2. Slide your film strip all the way into the film holder with the shiny base side facing down. Your images and any wording on the film strip should appear backwards on the side that faces up. You can scan up to 6 standard 35mm images per film strip.
2. Use a soft microfiber cloth to wipe the transparency unit window and the document table before placing your film or slides.
Note: Hold the edge of the film gently when touching the film; otherwise you may damage the film. Make sure the white stickers on the back of the film holder and the areas around them are not scratched, dusty, or covered in any way. If the areas are obscured, the scanner may have trouble recognizing your film. Do not cover the small holes or slots in the film holder.
To place film for scanning, see the next section. To place slides for scanning, see page 5.
