Operating the Scanner

(See Figure 6 opposite).

1. It is assumed that the scanner and FlexColor software have been

properly installed.

2. Make sure that the feed table (A) has been attached properly onto

the scanner (see “Attaching/Detaching the Feed Table” on page 14).

3. Press the power button (E) on the front of the scanner to switch it on.

The button will start flashing green, indicating that no firmware has

been downloaded yet. It will be downloaded automatically later

when you first run the FlexColor program.

4. Turn on your computer and launch the FlexColor program. The

power button (E) will stop flashing indicating that firmware has

been downloaded to the scanner.

5. Select the original holder that matches your original:

• For transparencies, choose one of the holders (H) that has a square

hole in it.

• For reflectives, select the large A4/letter-size holder (L) with the

clear plastic layer (not included in the standard delivery).

6. Place the original holder with the slotted tab facing into the scanner.

For transparency holders (H), the flexible magnetic layer (D) must

face upwards and the holder must fit between the guides (C) on both

sides of the feed table.

For the reflective holder (L), the clear plastic sheet must face

upwards. Make sure that the slot (K) in the leading edge of the

holder catches the notch (J) in the center of the original holder clasp
(F)

.

7. Slide the holder gently into the original holder clasp (F) at the

scanner entrance. It will slip about ½ cm (1/4 inch) into it. Do not

press too hard. It slips in very easily and is held in place by a pair of

magnets. To remove the holder, simply pull it gently backwards.
