HANDLING ORIGINALS AND MOUNTING PLATES

The mounting plate

The removable mounting plate is used for both transmission and reflection
originals. It consists of two glass plates hinged together: a base plate and a
removable top plate.
The base plate can be used for mounting both transmission and reflection
originals. It fits precisely into the scanner tray, ensuring correct registration.
The top plate is intended for mounting reflectives. Because it is hinged,
it lets you view the originals before or after preview scanning without losing
registration.

USING THE MOUNTING PLATE

• Make sure the mounting plate is placed in the scanner tray with the
handle of the top plate facing towards the front of the scanner.
• For scanning transparencies, we recommend that the top plate be closed,
forming a "sandwich" with the originals in the middle.
• To remove the mounting plate from the scanner, use its two side handles.
• To remove the top plate, raise it to vertical position and carefully lift it out
of the two rear hinges.
