Scanning Film

This scanner can scan 35 mm film strip one frame at a time.

Preparing to Scan Film

Use the following procedures to place the film adapter unit and the film guide on the document glass to

scan film.

1 Attach the cable for the film adapter unit to the FAU

connector on the scanner's side panel.

2 Open the document cover and place the film guide

on the document glass of the scanner.

Fit the two tabs on the film guide into the document glass slots.

Calibration

Calibration is required when film is first scanned. Calibration is the

process ScanGear CS uses to adjust to the correct color balance. If there is film in the film guide, remove it

before setting the film adapter unit on it.

1 Remove the cap from the film adapter unit and

gently set the film adapter unit over the first

frame in the film guide.

Align the tab on the film adapter unit with the film guide.

• You cannot scan film with the scanner in the upright position.

• Clean the document glass before placing the film guide on it, otherwise dirt and dust

can affect image quality or damage the film.

• Use a blower brush to remove any dust from the film, which will affect the image

quality, and take care to hold the film by its edges to avoid transferring dirt or

fingerprints to it.

• When opening the document cover, support it

with your hand until it stops.

• Be careful not to lose the cap or to

allow dirt into it.
