HP Scanjet 5370C Series Scanners - Installing and
Using the Active Transparency Adapter (XPA)
Introduction
The Use Transparency Adapter option lets you scan from the connected Active
Transparency Adapter (XPA) instead of scanning from the scanner bed. See the
following for instructions on how to install the Active XPA, as well as how to scan
general 5x5 inch transparencies and 35-mm slides.
NOTE:
When Use Transparency Adapter
is checked in the Tools menu, the Active
XPA icon appears in the status bar, but only if the Active XPA is connected.
If the menu item is dimmed, shut down HP Precisionscan Pro, connect the Active XPA
to the back of the scanner, and restart HP Precisionscan Pro.
Installing the Active XPA
Plug the Active XPA connector into the back of the scanner.
