Step 4—Scan the Slide

The actual scan is performed using Nikon Scan (for detailed information on using Nikon Scan, see the Nikon Scan 3 Software Manual).

Making a Scan

1 Start Nikon Scan

Windows

From the Start menu, select All Programs > Nikon Scan 3.1 > Nikon Scan 3.1 (Windows XP) or Programs > Nikon Scan 3.1 > Nikon Scan 3.1 (other versions of Windows).

Mac OS X

Open the folder Applications : Nikon Software : Nikon Scan 3 on the startup disk and double- click the Nikon Scan 3 icon.

Mac OS 9 or Earlier

Open the Nikon Software folder in the location to which you installed Nikon Scan (the default location is the root directory of the startup disk) and double- click the Nikon Scan 3.1 icon.

Scanning Images into Other Applications

Nikon Scan can be used as a “stand-alone” application for scanning images and saving them to disk as described above. It can also be used to scan images directly into any application that supports TWAIN (Windows) or Adobe Photoshop 5.0 acquire plug-ins (Mac OS 9 or earlier). Nikon Scan can not be used to scan images into third-party applications in Mac OS X.

Windows

Select Nikon Scan from the application’s list of “Acquire” or “Import” sources.

Mac OS 9 or Earlier

Before starting the application, make sure that the Nikon Scan 3 plug-in (Nikon Scan Plugin 3.1) has been copied into the Import/Export folder in the application’s plug-in folder. You can then scan images into the application by selecting Nikon Scan from the application’s list of “Acquire” or “Import” sources.

For more information, see the documentation for the application in question.
