Scanner notes

The DiMAGE Scan software is compatible with many of Minolta's high-end film scanners. This

means only one scanner driver needs to be installed on a computer with multiple scanner models

connected.

Because of the differences in specifications between scanners, some of the DiMAGE Scan func-

tions cannot be used with this scanner model. The following functions in described in the DiMAGE

Scan software manual are not available:

Digital ROC

Digital GEM

When scanning, the film type must be selected in the main window of the DiMAGE Scan Utility.

This scanner does not use glass holders and so the holder-type drop-down menu is deselected

and the film format cannot be changed. See scanner setup in the basic-scanning section of the

software manual.

Film type can be selected between color and black and white, positive and negative film. Film for

prints is negative film. Slide film is positive film.

The maximum resolution for this scanner is 5400 dpi. The input resolution that can be entered in

the DiMAGE Scan Utility is from 337 dpi to the maximum resolution of 5400 dpi.

When the DiMAGE Scan Utility is installed, the scanner profiles listed below are automatically

installed for this model scanner, see the software manual for location. These profiles have been

included for advanced color matching with profile-to-profile conversions in sophisticated image-

processing or DTP applications. When using these profiles, the color reproduced may not be the

same as the color matching system in the utility software. See the color matching section in the

DiMAGE Scan software manual for the profile location.

MLTF5400.icc - used with positive film at any color depth other than 16-bit linear.

MLTF5400p.icc - used with positive film with 16-bit linear color depth.
