LS-30 35 mm Film Scanner User’s Guide
1. Overview
Thank you for your purchase of a Nikon LS-30 scanner for 35 mm
film. The LS-30 is a high-speed, high-resolution scanner capable of
producing images suited to a wide variety of tasks, including desk-
top publishing, design, and multi-media publishing. Its modular
design allows you to change from scanning 35 mm slides to scan-
ning 35 mm strip film “on the fly.” An adapter for scanning IX240
film is available separately. The LS-30 uses a high-speed SCSI
interface for connection to computers running Mac OS System
Software 7.1 or later, Windows 95 or later, or Windows NT 4.0 or
later.
The scanner driver software provided with your scanner, Nikon Scan
2.1, offers sophisticated pre-scan editing of images, including
precise color correction, contrast, and brightness adjustment. Nikon
Scan can be launched from any TWAIN-compliant application
under Windows or from any application that supports Adobe
Photoshop
plug-ins (version 4.0 or higher) on the Macintosh. Nikon
Scan can also be used as a “stand-alone” application, allowing you to
save scanned images to disk without the help of another application.
The user’s manuals for the LS-30 and Nikon Scan are divided into
three parts. This User’s Guide offers a brief introduction to setting
up the scanner and scanning images using Nikon Scan. More
detailed reference manuals for the scanner and for Nikon Scan are
provided on CD-ROM. To read these manuals you will need to
install the Adobe Acrobat Reader software included on the refer-
ence CD. In addition, a one-page Fast Track Guide is provided for
experienced users who want to get started with the minimum of
instruction. Where appropriate, this guide will refer readers to the
reference manuals or Fast Track Guide for more information.
References to the manuals on CD are indicated by a icon in the
margin, references to the Fast Track Guide by a icon.
