Microtek LightLid
Installing and Getting Started
The LightLid 35 is a bonus accessory
included with your Microtek scanner. It gives
you the versatility to scan 35mm slides and
filmstrips on your flatbed scanner.
Microtek recommends the use of this
accessory to scan slides for on-screen display
purposes or where high resolution is not
critical. For high-quality print reproduction,
we recommend purchasing a dedicated slide
scanner or a Microtek scanner with built-in
film-scanning features.
Please note: Scanning of color transparencies may vary, depending on the quality of
your film original.
1. Unpack the LightLid 35.
2. Remove the scanner lid.
3. Connect the LightLid 35 to your scanner. To do this:
Connect the 15-pin connector (A in diagram) of your
LightLid 35 to the accessory port (B) at the back panel
of your scanner.
1. Mount the 35mm slide or filmstrip on the LightLid 35.
Turn the LightLid 35 over. Insert the
35mm slide front side up into the
recessed area at the center of the
LightLid. Secure the slide by gripping it
with the grip prong provided at the
connector side of the recessed area. For
added stability, you may wish to secure
the slide with a piece of adhesive tape.
