• To scan standard-size transparent film such as 35mm slides, 35mm filmstrips, 4"x5" film, or 120 film:
Use the individual film templates and the U-shaped Ruler (Calibration Ruler) included with the scanner
package.
1. To place the U-shaped Ruler, insert the tabs at the back of the ruler into the holes on the both sides
of the scanner's upper front surface, making sure that it has been oriented correctly.
2. Align the template's front corners firmly against the top corners (left and right) of the U-shaped
Ruler located at the front of the scanner.
