4. Inserting negatives
Open the negative holder at the point marked “Open“ and place the open holder in front of you as
shown below. The negatives can now be placed the right way up (not turned and not reversed) in
the recess provided in the holder. You can use the numbers on the negative strip as a guide.
Close the negative holder and press down the edges until they engage.
Now insert the negative holder from the right into the Multi Scanner’s insertion slot for slide and
negative holders so that the white triangle marking is facing the front and is visible.
Slide the negative holder into the Multi Scanner until it engages noticeably in the first negative
position.
Note:
• Caution: Do not insert negative holder from the left side into the insertion slot of the
scanner and do not pull the holder out of the right side of the scanner! Any damage
resulting from such incorrect handling, is not covered by the warranty!
• Handle negatives with due care. Dust, scratches or fingerprints will be visible on the saved
image. When working with slides, wear cotton gloves, where possible. Use compressed air
for removing dust from the negatives. Such a device is not included with the Multi Scanner
but can be purchased from specialist retailers for office materials or electronics products.
• The design of the negative holder complies with the ISO standard. In some cases the holes
of the negatives do not fit the holder accurately. This is caused by non-standard cameras.
In such cases a small black line appears on the edge of the picture, which can be easily
removed with an image editing program.
