Using the Transparency Unit to Scan

Scanning films with suitable settings

This section explains how to make settings suitable for materials you want to scan.
Follow the steps below to make settings suitable for scanning films in the Professional Mode.
Make sure the scanner is connected to your computer.
Place your films on the document table.
Start Epson Scan and then select the Professional Mode.
Specify the Original settings to match your films.
Specify the Destination settings to match the resulting image file you desire.
Note:
When you specify a high resolution, the number of pixels of the data increases and the scanned image becomes fine in texture. However, increasing the resolution causes the data size to increase. Specify a suitable resolution according to the scanning purpose.
Click the Preview button to preview the images.
Use Target Size to specify the output size of the scanned image and specify the Adjustments settings, if necessary. (You may need to scroll to the bottom of the screen.)
You can improve the scanned image quality by using the Adjustments features.
Click Scan. Epson Scan starts scanning.
The scanned images are saved in the specified folder.

Scanning reflective (non-film) documents

Open the Transparency Unit, and then remove the transparency guide from the scanner’s document table.
Slide the mat into the upper side, and then insert the tabs into the slots on the lower side slots on the Transparency Unit.
Place your document on the document table, and then close the Transparency Unit.
