Tips for scanning transparent items

● To scan items larger than those that the transparent materials adapter (TMA) accepts, place the transparency on the scanner glass, place a white sheet of paper on top of the transparency, and then scan as usual.

● When scanning a 35 mm slide or negative, the scanner software automatically enlarges the image to approximately 10 cm x 15 cm (4 x 6 inches). If you want the final image to be larger or smaller, use the Resize tool in the scanner software to set the scaling to the final size that you select. The scanner will scan the item to the size that you select and adjust the scan resolution as appropriate.

User's Manual 13

Chapter 1

● To scan positives, such as 35 mm slides, or negatives by using the TMA, press the Scan Film button ( ) on the top of the scanner, or click Scan Film in HP

Care and maintenance

Occasional cleaning of your scanner helps ensure higher-quality scans. The amount of care necessary depends upon several factors, including the amount of use, and the environment. You should perform routine cleaning as necessary.

For all care and maintenance procedures required for the scanner, please see the

Care and maintenance section for your scanner in the onscreen Help. In HP Solution

Center, click Help, and then select the Help section for your scanner model.

Routine cleaning and maintenance should include cleaning the scanner glass and the transparent materials adapter (TMA).

Caution Avoid placing items that have sharp edges in the scanner. Doing so can damage the scanner. Before placing an item on the scanner glass, make sure that the item does not contain wet glue, correction fluid, or other substances that can be transferred to the glass.

Clean the scanner glass

1.

Disconnect the universal serial bus (USB) cable and power cable from the scanner.

2.

Clean the glass by using a soft, lint-free cloth that has been sprayed with a mild glass cleaner, and dry the glass with a dry, soft, lint-free cloth.

Caution Use only glass cleaner. Avoid abrasives, acetone, benzene, and carbon tetrachloride, all of which can damage the scanner glass. Avoid isopropyl alcohol because it can leave streaks on the glass.

Do not spray the glass cleaner directly on the glass. If too much glass cleaner is applied, the cleaner could run to the edges and damage the scanner.

3.

When you have finished, reconnect the USB cable and power cable to the scanner.

Note For instructions about how to clean the underside of the scanner glass, visit www.hp.com/support .

Clean the transparent materials adapter (TMA)

Clean the TMA with a dry, soft cloth. If necessary, lightly spray the cloth with glass cleaner and wipe the TMA.

Scanner initialization or hardware problems

This section contains solutions for initialization and hardware problems.

Reset the scanner

If you receive an error message similar to “Scanner initialization failed” or “Scanner not found” when trying to use the scanner, use the following procedure:

1.

Close the HP Image Zone software, if it is open.

2.

Disconnect the cable that connects the scanner to the computer.

3.
