Placing Film in the Film Area Guide
You can scan film that cannot be placed in the film holders (up to 8 × 10 inch film) using the film area guide in
Professional Mode. When scanning film using the film area guide, always select
Film (with Film Area Guide)
as the
Document Type.
Note:
You cannot use DIGITAL ICE Technology when scanning film with the film area guide.
If you scan 8 × 10 inch film at 4800 dpi resolution and 24 bit color as the Image Type, do not
save it in BMP, Tiff, or JPEG format.
When scanning using the film area guide, striped (newton) rings may appear in your scanned
images.
Make sure the tab on the long edge of the film area guide is on the left side.
Fold the tab along the perforated lines as shown.
