Chapter 3. Making Your First Scan

Refer to the following steps to make your first scan using the ScanWit film
scanner:

Step 1. Test the scanner

Turn on the power of your film scanner, then your computer. Wait until
the scanner completes its self-test. You can judge the status of the
film scanner from the LED indicators. Once the READY LED indicator
stops flashing, the film scanner is ready to scan.

Step 2. Place original on the holder

Place the film in the film holder. Two types of film holders are supplied
with your film scanner. You can select the appropriate film holder that
fits the type of your film:

Note: When you place the film/slide in the filmstrip/slide holder,
make sure that the film/slide is free from dust. You may also
want to check that the film/slide is cleaned properly.

If you want to scan a filmstrip:
You can use the filmstrip holder (the holder with 6 rectangular lattices
and a FILM mark) to place your filmstrip.
