arrow button scrolls one line at a time, the double-arrow button scrolls two lines.

Index thumbnails
When using a USB storage device on the same bus as the scanner, save the data on
the computer's hard disk first before transferring it to the storage device. Saving the
scanned data directly to the device may corrupt the image data.
Select the option which best describes the final
use of the scanned image. Only one choice can
be made. Click the scan button to continue; the
save-as screen will open. If an image has
multiple uses, repeat the Easy Scan procedure
for each use of the image.
On the save-as screen, specify the file name, file
format, and destination of the image data. Images can
be saved in BMP, JPEG, TIFF, or PICT file formats.
See page 21 for more about these formats. When
saving JPEG files, the compression ratio can be
specified. Click the save button to complete the final
scan.
After the scanning is completed, the image is ready to
use. Click the appropriate button to continue or close
the utility. The quit button closes the Easy Scan Utility
and ejects the film holder. The replace-film button
ejects the holder so the film can be changed. The
continue button allows other images in the film holder
to be scanned. Turn off the scanner when not in use.
