Scanning Film and Transparencies

The scanner cover has a built-in transparency unit (film adapter). To scan film or negative strips, slides, or transparencies, you need to remove the document mat from the scanner cover and insert the film in a holder.

The scanner comes with 3 different film holders: one for 35 mm film or negative strips, one for 35 mm slides, and one for medium-format (120/220) transparencies.

1.Make sure the film adapter cable is connected to

the scanner (see the Start Here sheet for instructions). If you need to connect the cable, first turn the scanner off. Then turn it back on again after

you connect the cable.

2.Lift the scanner cover all the way up and slide the reflective document mat up and off of the scanner cover.

Place the film holder on the scanner as shown. Make sure the white triangle on the holder points to the upper-right corner of the scanner.

Make sure this calibration space is uncovered
