CLEANING THE MOUNTING PLATE
Scratches and dust are read as information by the scanner. It is therefore
important to keep all surfaces of the mounting plate clean. Cleaning must
be done with care to avoid damaging the glass or the anti-reflection coating.
For cleaning, remove the mounting plate from the scanner.
1 • Carefully remove any pieces of tape that are still attached to the glass.
2 • Use ordinary household glass cleaner or alcohol and a soft, non-abrasive
cloth to clean the top and bottom surfaces of the base plate and top
plate.
3 • After cleaning, wipe all the surfaces with an anti-static cloth to
prevent the build-up of static electricity.
CAUTION:
•
Do not
use strong organic solvents such as acetone, benzine, etc.
•
Do not
use any cloth or paper wipes that may scratch the surfaces of the
glass.
Standard templates
Whenever possible, we recommend using templates for mounting transmis-
sion originals. Besides making batch scanning more efficient and ensuring
proper alignment of all originals, using the templates minimizes the use of
tape directly on the mounting plate, prolonging the life of the plate.
A set of several different templates is supplied with the scanner. Additional
templates in any of the formats are available from your ScanView dealer.
MOUNTING ORIGINALS IN A TEMPLATE
• Choose the template that matches the size of your originals and ensure that
the top surface is clean so that the tape can adhere properly.
• If the number of originals to be mounted is less than the number of
cut-outs in the template, mount the originals in the number sequence
