Important Notes about Scanning Film Do not cover any small compartment below each arrow sign on the film holder because that it is necessary for calibration. Always replace the reflective document mat onto the scanner's document cover after you finish scanning the films. Make sure the film is properly loaded into the film holder and the film holder is correctly positioned on the scanner glass. Make sure the proper SCAN SOURCE and SCAN SIZE are selected before proceeding the scanning task. It is recommended to use a higher resolution (such as 600dpi for 35mm films, or 300dpi for 120/220 films) when you proceed the film scanning task to prevent the scan images from losing the quality while you enlarge the size of the images. Sound Settings You may choose to play a sound file when executing any scanning task to add fun and pleasure. [. . . ] If you have any questions about your Limited Warranty, contact Genius.
