Tips for scanning transparent items
● To scan items larger than those that the transparent materials adapter (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.
For more information, go to the Index tab in the onscreen Help. Type resize in the
keyword field and click images in HP Scanning software in the list.
● To scan positives, such as 35 mm slides, or negatives by using the TMA, press
the Scan Film button (
), or click Scan Film in the HP Solution Center.
Preview a scanned image
If you want to preview the scanned image, either begin the scan from the HP Solution
