Mounting Originals
This section describes the various methods for mounting originals in
the scanner.
Methods for mounting originals:
•
Supplied masks
•
mix format mask
•
35-mm strip
•
slide holder
•
User defined masks
•
Mounting originals directly in the scanner
•
Oil mounting kit
Working with the scanner is more convenient and productive with
masks. Therefore, using masks is recommended.
The advantages of using masks include:
•
Preparing the originals in advance on a different worktable, while
the scanner is busy with other scans.
•
Positioning the originals is easier using the mask grid lines.
•
The
Base glass
is kept clean (no tape marks).
•
Defining multi-preview custom made formats. The defined user
formats will appear in the
Format
list of the application. After
preview, each image is displayed as a separate preview.
Before mounting, make sure the Base glass, Top glass and originals are
clean.
