HP Scanjet 5370C Series Scanners - Installing and Using the Active Transparency Adapter (XPA)

Introduction

The Use Transparency Adapter option lets you scan from the connected Active Transparency Adapter (XPA) instead of scanning from the scanner bed. See the following for instructions on how to install the Active XPA, as well as how to scan general 5x5 inch transparencies and 35-mm slides.

NOTE: When Use Transparency Adapter is checked in the Tools menu, the Active XPA icon appears in the status bar, but only if the Active XPA is connected.

If the menu item is dimmed, shut down HP Precisionscan Pro, connect the Active XPA to the back of the scanner, and restart HP Precisionscan Pro.

Installing the Active XPA

Plug the Active XPA connector into the back of the scanner.
