How to scan from the
transparent materials adapter
(TMA)
Use the transparent materials adapter (TMA) to scan 35 mm slides or negatives.
Tips for scanning transparent items
● To scan items larger than those that the TMA accepts, place the transparency on
the scanner glass, place a white sheet of paper on top of the transparency, and
then scan as usual.
● When scanning a 35 mm slide or negative, the scanner software automatically
enlarges the image to approximately 10 cm x 15 cm (4 x 6 inches). If you want
the final image to be larger or smaller, use the Resize tool in the scanner
software to set the scaling to the final size that you select. The scanner will scan
the item to the size that you select and adjust the scan resolution as appropriate.
● To scan positives, such as 35 mm slides, or negatives using the TMA, press the
Scan Picture button (
) on the front of the scanner, or click the Scan Film
button in HP Solution Center.
Scan slides
To scan 35 mm slides, use the slide holder that is part of the built-in TMA.
1. Open the scanner lid and remove the TMA cover.
2. Remove the negative holder, if present, from the slide holder.
