6 Operating the Scanner
This section provides information on how to operate the ArtixScan 2500. The subjects covered in this section include
how to position your images for scanning and how to use the various holders included in your scanner package when
scanning transparent film.
1. Positioning reflective materials
This procedure applies when you use the upper scan bed of the ArtixScan 2500. The upper scan bed is used for
scanning reflective materials such as photos and prints.
A. General scanning
Place images anywhere on the glass scanner bed. Images
can be scanned at a maximum optical resolution of 1250
dpi (or at higher resolutions through software interpola-
tion). To scan images in the area marked “HIGH
RESOLUTION” (see next section)
1.
Lift the scanner lid. If you are scanning a book or
thick materials / documents, lift the scanner lid out of
its hinge sockets high enough to create room between
the materials and the lid.
2.
Place the image to be scanned face down on the
scanner glass. Center the top of the image along the
horizontal ruler on the scanner. Then lower the
scanner lid.
B. Scanning in high resolution
If you wish to scan in high resolution, place the image to
be scanned on the 4-inch wide area running the whole
length of the scanner bed, as shown in the illustration
below. A section of the horizontal ruler is marked off
with the words “HIGH RESOLUTION” to guide you in
placement. Images in this area can be scanned at a
maximum optical resolution of 2,500 dpi (or at higher
resolutions through software interpolation).
