Scanning Tips

Selecting the Scanning Mode

EPSON Scan has three scanning modes: 

Full Auto Mode allows the software to 
automatically select the best settings 
for your scan.

Home Mode lets you adjust some of 
the basic settings before you scan.

Professional Mode gives full control 
over all scan settings. You can 
sharpen, correct, or enhance your 
images before scanning.

You can choose the scanning mode from 
the list box at the top right of the window.

To change settings in Full Auto Mode, click 
the Pause button, then click Options. If 
you’re using Home or Professional Mode, 
the options window automatically appears. 
Then select the settings you want to use 
for your scan.

Note: The selected mode and settings remain in effect until they are changed.

For more information on the scanning modes and available settings, see the 
on-screen Reference Guide

Restoring Color in Photos

If you have faded photos or negatives, you can use the Color Restoration setting 
in your software to improve the color of your scan. You can select this setting in 
Smart Panel or in EPSON Scan.

Smart Panel

To select the Color Restoration setting, open Smart Panel and select 

RePrint 

Photo. You see the screen below. Click the Color Restoration Icon.

EPSON Scan

Color Restoration is available in Home and Professional Modes. 

To select Color Restoration, start 
EPSON Scan. You see a screen 
similar to this.

Click the Preview button at the 
bottom of the screen. Then select 
the Color Restoration checkbox. 
(If you’re using Professional 
Mode, you may need to scroll to 
the bottom of the screen.)

Placing Film on the Scanner

The Perfection 1670 Photo scanner cover has a built-in transparency unit (TPU). 
To scan negative film or slides, you’ll need to remove the reflective document mat 
from the cover and place the film in a holder on the scanner glass.

1

Make sure the transparency unit cable is connected 
to the back of the scanner (see step 4 in 
“Connect the Scanner”).

2

Lift the scanner cover all the way up and 
slide the reflective document mat up 
and off of the scanner cover. 

3

Slide the negative strip into the film holder, with the film’s shiny base side 
facing down.

4

Place the film holder in the correct position for your film type. If you are 
scanning slides, place the holder on the scanner first, then place the slides 
in the holder.

Be sure to match the letter on the film holder tab with the corresponding 
letter on the scanner.

Note: Make sure the narrow calibration window at the top of the film holder 
is clean and uncovered to ensure an accurate scan.

5

Close the scanner cover.

Tip: 

Make sure your negatives or slides are dust-free for the 
best scan. You can also select the Dust Removal setting 
in EPSON Scan to improve your scan.

If your scanned image is upside down, you can use the 

Rotate 

buttons in EPSON Smart Panel (not available in all Smart Panel 
applications) or in 

Preview mode in EPSON Scan. You can also 

rotate the image in most image-editing applications.

Storing the Film Holder

When you’re finished scanning, you can store the film holder in the scanner 
cover.

1

Lift the cover and remove the document mat.

2

Slide the film holder into the cover.

3

Replace the document mat.
