Scanning basics
Please read the basic scanning section in its entirety before moving on. Before any scan is
made, the film holder must be loaded and inserted into the scanner. Refer to the scanner hard-
ware manual for instructions as well as film handling tips.
Three types of scans can be made singly or in combination depending on the workflow and
degree of processing:
Do not launch the utility with a film holder in the scanner and confirm the front door is closed.
The utility can also be launched from an image-processing application. See the Windows and
Macintosh installation section.
