●Suggested Configuration for Scanning
Place the printer on a leveled and stable surface AND in a dark place without sunlight or other light sourcing shining directly to the
‧
scanner modules for better scan performance.
‧ Scannable object size (diameter x height): 3x3cm to 12x12cm/1.18x1.18" to 4.7"x4.7"
‧ Scannable object weight: ≦ 3kg/6.6lbs
‧ Objects with the following features scan better:
◆ Stationary objects ◆ Non-translucent objects ◆ Objects with light-shaded surface, especially white surfaced objects ◆ Cylinder-
like objects, objects with round curves
‧ Moving/living objects may not be scanned
‧ Objects with very fi ne spikes, sharp or pointed tip or fur-covered objects may be diffi cult to scan.
●Object Placement
Place the object to be scanned at the center of the turntable, and adjust the placement to make sure that as much of the object is in
the line of sight of the scanners.
●Tips for Improving Scanning Quality
Due to the limitation of the laws of physics, objects with some features may not scan well. If scanning with the correct scan
mode setting doesn't help, follw the suggestion below may help to improve the scanning quality.
For objects with high contrast/glossy/fuzzy/translucent/dark, especially black, dark green and dark blue, surface, you may try
to apply rubber coating (white coating works the best) on the surface. (The coating can be peeled off easily when dry)
