Scanning with Scan Frames/Negative Film Holder Scan Frames and Negative Film Holders are for use with transparencies and negatives. Scan Frames are thin, hinged, rectangular-shaped frames which can hold a source document of a slightly smaller size. The Scan Frames come in a number of sizes, including 120mm, 4 x 5 inch, and 35 mm slide holder. The Negative Film Holder is a rectangular-plastic frame with two rows, each row can hold 6 negatives. A rubber cover is placed on the film holder to prevent the negatives bending while on the scanner's object glass. Orientation holes are located on the short sides of the frames. When one or more of these frames are placed on the scanner's object glass and the "Scan" button is clicked, the scanner will automatically detect the existence of each frame, using the orientation holes for reference, and will only include what is within each Scan Frame in the resulting scanned image. To use the Scan Frames and Negative Film Holder, do the following: 1. Select a Scan Frame size, which will hold the original source document without covering up the orientation holes. Select the "Frame Holder" option from MagicScan if you use frame holder. Or select "Negative Film Holder" if you use the Negative Film Holder for negatives. For detailed information on using frame holders, refer to your MagicScan Electronic Book. Open the Scan Frame/Negative Film Holder and place the source document inside, taking care not to cover the orientation holes. 3. 4. Lift up the Scanner's cover and place the Scan Frame/Negative Film Holder on the scanner's object glass. Note: The Negative Film Holder must be placed vertically within the scanner's object glass with the rubber cover placed up on it as shown above. Otherwise, the scanning job won't be done correctly. 14 5. Carefully place the Scan Frame so that it's exactly parallel with one of the borders of the scanner's object glass. You can easily do this by simply placing the Scan Frame against one of the borders. Note: Although misalignment will not prevent the scanner from scanning, portions of the Scan Frame may appear in the resulting scan if the frame is not perfectly aligned. To avoid streaking of your scanned image, please, Set the SCSI ID switch on the scanner to "D", then turn on the scanner power switch. The object glass will automatically slide outward.
