6 From the Source pop-up menu, choose Transparency.
7 In the dialog box that appears, select the type of film you are scanning.
Each film type named in the Negative pop-up menu belongs to one of four
negative film bases. If you don’t see your film named in the menu, try each of
the four bases for scanning your negative. Then use the one you like best. The
bases to try are:
m Agfa Optima 400
m Agfa XRS
m Kodak Ektapress
m Kodak Ektar
8 Click OK.
9 Click Scan.
The scanner scans the film. If you are scanning negatives, the scanner takes
extra time for calibration.
Bypassing the adapter
Even though you have the Transparent Media Adapter on your scanner, you
can still scan paper originals. Place the originals on the document glass. In
the Dispatcher window, choose Flatbed from the Source pop-up menu. Then
preview or scan as usual. Be careful not to scratch the diffuser with staples or
paper clips attached to paper originals. Scratches are permanent and may
show up as flaws in the images you scan from film.
