B. Using the 35mm Filmstrip Template
To scan 35mm filmstrips, use the 35mm Filmstrip Template, which can
simultaneously hold two strips of 6 frames each, or a total of 12 frames.
1. Place the 35mm filmstrip to be scanned inside the frame of the 35mm Filmstrip
Template. The shiny base of the 35mm filmstrip should be facing down, and the
emulsion side of the filmstrip should be facing up.
2. Place the 35mm Filmstrip Template containing the loaded filmstrip on the
scanner glass surface. Make sure to orient the template with the “Microtek”
logo facing up.
