Tips for scanning transparent items

●To scan items larger than those that the transparent materials adapter (TMA) or template accepts, place the transparency on the scanner glass, place a white sheet of paper on top of the transparency, and then scan as described in Scan pictures.

●When scanning a 35 mm slide or negative, the scanner software automatically enlarges the image to approximately 10 cm x 15 cm (4 x 6 inches). Medium and large format negatives are also scaled to a larger final size. If you want the final image to be larger or smaller, use the Resize tool in the scanner software to set the scaling to the final size that you select. The scanner will scan the item to the size that you select and adjust the scan resolution as appropriate.

●You can configure the scan settings for either fast scanning or higher-quality output. If you choose to take advantage of this product's high-quality output using the optimum color accuracy options, the scanning process will be considerably slower. For more information, see Image quality (6-color scanning) vs. speed.

●When cropping images, completely remove the borders to reduce excess light interference.
