Using the Drum

The best way to scan transparencies is to use a ßexible original holder
and the drum at the top of the scanner. This enables Flextight to scan
the original without glass plates coming between the sensor and the
original. However, you can only scan between one and four (depending
on format) transparent originals at a time this way).
1. Select the magnetic original holder that matches your original. The
original must completely Þll the hole with no edges showing.
2. Place the original holder between the guide rails with the slotted
tab facing into the scanner (see Figure 1 and Figure 6).
3. Slide the holder gently into the slot at the top of the light table. It
will slip about 1/2 cm (1/4 inch) into the slot. Do not press too
hard. It slips in very easily and is held in place by a magnet. To
remove the holder, simply slide it back out.
4. As shown in Figure 6, lift the top layer of the original holder and
place your original with the emulsion side down. The original
must completely Þll the hole with no edges showing and with a
minimum overlap of 2mm along each edge. Also, no edges of the
original may extend past the outer edges of the holder. Use the
light table to help position the image.
