Using The Glass Film Holder - Microtek ScanMaker IIG User Manual

Using the glass film holder

Use the glass film holder to scan irregularly sized film between 4" x
5" and 5" x 5".
Place film on the underside of the glass film holder, with the
1
film upright and facing up. Use the vinyl strips to tape the film
to the glass to secure it in place.
Important: Make sure the film is taped securely to the glass.
Otherwise, the film may fall out when you insert the glass film holder
into the scanner, and you will not be able to retrieve the film.
Note: For best results, the area around the film should be
covered so that no light can go through the glass around the sides of
the film.
• The maximum scanning area is 5" x 5", so trim a piece of black
paper to 5" x 5".
• Cut out a hole in the paper and make the cut-out big enough so
that the film underneath shows through. The black paper should
then cover the perimeter of the film.
