Scan negatives — HP Scanjet 4890
The transparent materials adapter (TMA) is built into the scanner lid. Slides,
negatives, and medium- and large-format film have their own unique media holders
called “templates.” The templates are rectangular frames that you can use to optimally
place your media for scanning.
Before you begin! Check the model number on the scanner lid. The steps below are
for the HP Scanjet 4890. If you are using an HP Scanjet 4850, see
Scan negatives —

1. Open the scanner lid.
2. Remove the TMA cover by releasing the latch and pulling the cover up and
toward you.
3. Place the negatives into the appropriate template.
Note Negatives are easily damaged. Touch them only on their edges.
– Place 35 mm negative frames in the negatives template. Start at the top and
fill in rows with the negative strips.
