Scanning from the XPA

You can scan slides or negatives using the XPA.

Tip Do not use the XPA to scan a letter-size item, such as a presentation transparency. Place the transparent item on the scanner glass, place a white piece of paper on top, and scan as you normally would using the Scanner Glass command on the Scan menu.

See the Setup and Support Guide for information about installing the XPA.

See "Items for the XPA" on page 18 for information about preparing items for the XPA.
