■ The scanner perceives the film
guide’s frame as white, which
alters the exposure of the scanning
area and makes the preview appear
darker. To see the correct colors,
do a zoom preview on an area
toward the center of an image.
■ If you see light vertical lines on the
scanned image, the TPU
calibration area may contain dirt
or dust. Clean the calibration area
with a lint free cloth.
