Scanning Film
You can scan 35 mm film (strips or slides) as well as 120 and 4" x 5" format film with this scanner.
Positioning the FilmUse the following procedures to insert the film into the film guide. Make sure that the FAU cable is connected properly. If the scanner power is not on, press the power switch to turn it on (p. 7).
When you finish scanning, fit the holes at the bottom end of the protective sheet over the tabs at the bottom of the document cover and slide the protective sheet down. Repeat the procedure for the top end.
• Store the protective sheet in a safe place so that it will not get bent or broken.
• Always replace the protective sheet when you are not scanning film to prevent the light source section from getting scratched.
