Cleaning — Unplug the unit before cleaning. Clean only the outside

cabinet with a damp cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol

cleaners.

Attachments — Do not use attachments that are not recommended.

The use of such attachments may cause hazards and serious damage

to the equipment.

WARNING: Water and Moisture — Do not use the equipment near

water — for example, near a sink, or in a wet room or basement, etc.

Do not expose the unit to rain or moisture and do not immerse the

equipment in water or other liquids; contact Kodak for servicing if this

occurs.

Dust — Excessive dust levels may damage internal parts. Be certain to

cover the scanner with the supplied dust cover whenever the scanner

is off. Because dust can build up in the scanner and affect image

quality, we recommend that you follow the procedure at the begin-

ning of each work session that is described at the end of “Appendix

C — Trouleshooting.” Doing so will help to ensure that you remove

dust buildup before scanning.

Power Sources — You should operate the unit only from the type of

power source indicated on the back of the unit. If you are not sure of

the type of power supply that will be used, consult a dealer or local

power company.

Replaceable Fuse — There is one replaceable fuse in the unit. Be sure

that the fuse meets the power requirements listed on the fuse-rating

label on the unit.

Grounding — The unit is equipped with a three-wire grounding-type

plug with a third (grounding) pin. The three-wire plug will fit into a

grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable

to insert the plug into an outlet, contact an electrician to replace the

obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type

plug.

Power-Cord Protection — Route power-supply cords so that they are

not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed on or against

them; pay particular attention to cords at plugs, receptacles, and the

point where they leave the unit.

Operating Range — If the Scanner has been stored or transported

outside its operating ambient temperature range (refer to

“Appendix J — Specifications”), allow it to return to within its operat-

ing range before turning it on.

Lightning — For added protection of the equipment during a lightning

storm, or any time when you will leave the equipment unattended

and unused for long periods of time, unplug the unit from the power

outlet. This will protect the equipment from damage caused by

lightning or power-line surges.

Overloading — Do not overload power outlets and extension cords;

this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

Object or Liquid Entry — Never push foreign objects of any kind into

the equipment openings. Never spill liquid of any kind on the equip-

ment; contact Kodak for servicing if this occurs.

Servicing — Do not attempt to service the unit yourself, except to

change the fuse (see instructions in “Appendix E — Replacing the

Fuse”). Opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous

voltage or other hazards.

Damage Requiring Service — Unplug the unit from the wall outlet

and refer all servicing to the manufacturer under the following condi-

tions. (Refer to “Appendix B — Warranty” for additional information.)

–

Introduction

The KODAK Professional RFS 3570 Film Scanner combines high resolu-

tion, high speed, and scanning of a variety of film formats from 35 mm to

70 mm (RFS “3570”), in one easy-to-operate desktop scanner.

Once you’ve scanned the image (color negative, color transparency, or

black-and-white negative) you can view it as a color or monochrome

image.

The Scanner works by flashing a filtered (red, green, blue) strobe through

your image against a Charge Coupled Device (CCD). The Scanner pro-

vides 6 million pixels per scan — crisp images of 3072 pixels wide by

2048 pixels high.

terminated SCSI device, to your Macintosh computer by using the sup-

plied cable and terminator.

NOTES: If you are a PowerBook user, consult the manuals supplied with your

computer to determine the cabling and termination requirements needed to

connect the Scanner — a non-terminated SCSI device — to your PowerBook. You

will probably need to supply a PowerBook HDI-30-pin to 50-pin SCSI cable to

complete this connection. Be certain that the cable you obtain is for connecting a

PowerBook computer to a SCSI device, not for connecting a PowerBook com-

puter to a desktop computer.

This manual assumes that you are familiar with the operation of your Macintosh

computer. If you are not, refer to the manuals and other instructions supplied with

that computer before continuing.

1. Turn off the power to your Macintosh computer and all peripherals

A. First look for an external SCSI terminator on the devices; if you

find one, remove it.

B. Because some devices contain internal terminators, also check

the instructions for your devices to determine if they are termi-

nated internally.

NOTE: The Scanner does not have an internal terminator.

4. Select the appropriate instructions from the two sets that follow,

according to whether or not an external device is terminated inter-

nally.

A. Continue on the next page if none of the connected devices is

terminated internally.

B. Or continue at “Follow these steps if one of the connected devices

is terminated internally” later in this chapter if one of the con-

nected devices is terminated internally.

Follow these steps if none of the connected devices is

terminated internally (and any external terminator found in the

SCSI chain has been removed):

NOTE: In the following steps, you will place the Scanner at the end of the chain

of connected devices. (You can place the Scanner anywhere in the chain as long

as you add a terminator to the last device in the chain.)

1. Attach one end of your 50-pin to 50-pin SCSI cable to the empty SCSI

port on the last device in the chain. Seat the connector firmly and

pinch the thin wire clamps shut.

NOTE: This cable is not packed with the Scanner but is available through

Kodak. Refer to “Appendix I — Optional Equipment & Spare Parts List.” This

cable is also widely available from computer retailers; if you obtain a cable

from one of these sources, be certain to obtain a high quality cable with a

continuous EMI shield over the cable and connectors.

Setting the Scanner SCSI Identification

Number

Follow the steps below to set the SCSI identification (ID) number for the

Scanner. You set the number by gently pushing buttons at the top and

bottom of the SCSI ID switch on the back of the Scanner as described in

this section.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Each SCSI device connected to the same computer must have a different

SCSI ID number. Your Macintosh Computer is number 7, and your

internal hard disk is probably 0. If your computer has a CD-ROM drive,

be certain to avoid its number also; it may be number 3 if it is an internal

drive supplied by Apple Computer, Inc. Therefore avoid numbers 0, 3,

and 7 since the Scanner must have a unique SCSI ID.

1. If SCSI devices other than the Scanner are connected to your Macin-

tosh Computer, determine their SCSI identification numbers so that

you can select a different number for the Scanner. (If necessary, refer

to the documentation for those devices to determine how to find their

numbers.)

2. Double-check to make sure that the power to the Scanner is off (O).

(The O end of the switch should be pressed in and the green light at

the top left front corner of the Scanner should be off.)

3. Set the Scanner to an unused number from 1 to 6 by pressing the

bottom button to go to a higher number or the top button to go to a

lower number. Do not assign the number of any other attached SCSI

device, and do not assign 0, 7, 8, or 9. If your computer has a CD-

ROM drive, be certain to avoid its number also; it may be number 3 if

it is an internal drive supplied by Apple Computer, Inc. Assign high ID

numbers to devices used most frequently.

NOTE: Make sure the power to the Scanner is off if you change its ID number at a

later time.

Installing the KODAK Driver for

Adobe Photoshop Software

(Macintosh)

Follow these steps to install the driver. This is a onetime operation that

you must perform before you can obtain images from the Scanner.

1. Turn on your Macintosh computer; after a short wait, you will be in

the Finder. (If your Macintosh computer has been configured to open

applications other than the Finder, return to the Finder now.)

2. Install Adobe Photoshop (not provided by Kodak) if you have not

already done so.

3. Make sure the gamma for your monitor is calibrated properly, per

instructions in the Photoshop manual.

4. Locate the diskette entitled “KODAK Driver for ADOBE PHOTO-

SHOP Software for use with KODAK Professional RFS 3570 Film

Scanner.”

5. If the diskette is not locked, lock it by sliding the tab on the back to

reveal a small hole. This will prevent the contents of the disk from

being changed inadvertently, and may aid in preventing the spread of

computer viruses to this diskette.

6. Place the diskette into the internal drive of your Macintosh computer.

If a window does not open for the diskette, double-click on the

diskette icon to display the window.

7. Double-click on the R^EADME file, read its contents — the latest

information on the Scanner; then choose Q^UITfrom the FILE menu.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

8. Complete part A of this step for supported Photoshop versions before

version 2.5, and part B for versions 2.5 and later.

A. Drag the KODAK RFS 3570 and the RFS3570.BIN icons into the

folder on your hard disk that contains the Photoshop PS PREFS

file. Wait while the files are copied; if you are asked if the new

files should replace existing ones, respond affirmatively.

NOTE: If the PS PREFS file does not exist, you must run Photoshop (once)

to create it. If you do not place the KODAK RFS 3570 and RFS3570.BIN

icons into the same folder as PS PREFS, you will not be able to acquire

images from the Scanner.

B. Follow directions in the Photoshop manual regarding placement

of plug-in modules. For example, with Photoshop 2.5 and 3.0,

drag the KODAK RFS 3570 and RFS3570.BIN icons into the P^LUG-

INS folder created when you installed this version of Photoshop (or

into another folder you have designated with P^REFERENCESto hold

plug-in modules). For Photoshop 2.5, be certain that the two files

are not placed within another folder inside the P^LUG-INS folder.

Wait while the files are copied; if you are asked if the new files

should replace existing ones, respond affirmatively.

9. Eject the diskette by dragging its icon to the TRASH icon.

10. Store the diskette. (Although copying the driver files is a onetime

action, you may need to use the diskette again.)

The driver is now installed in your Macintosh computer and the Scanner

is now ready for use as described in Chapter 4 and Chapter 5.

Displaying the KODAK Driver

Window

Follow the steps in this section each time that you want to acquire data

from the Scanner from within Adobe Photoshop.

1. With your computer, Scanner, and other SCSI devices (if present)

turned off, turn on the Scanner by pressing the (I) end of the power

switch on the back of the Scanner. The POWER indicator light, a

small green light at the top front left corner of the Scanner, turns on.

You’ll hear the system perform a self-test by moving its internal

mechanism. Then the Scanner is ready for use—no warm-up is

required.

CAUTION: Always turn on the Scanner before you turn on

your computer; it is important that you follow this procedure.

2. If other SCSI devices are present, turn them on. (SCSI devices can be

turned on in any order.)

3. Turn on your Macintosh Computer.

4. Run Adobe Photoshop.

5. Choose KODAK RFS 3570 from the A^CQUIREsubmenu of the Adobe

Photoshop F^ILEmenu. (The submenu may show other options.)

NOTE: If the Scanner choice does not appear on the submenu, follow the

directions in “Installing the KODAK Driver for Adobe Photoshop Software” in

Chapter 3 to ensure that the driver files are properly installed on you hard

disk.

If you see a message that “The Scanner was not found . . .” refer to this

message in “Appendix D — Messages from KODAK Drivers.”

Producing Scanned Images

In this section, you will load your film or slides into the Scanner and then

generate scans by making selections from the KODAK Driver window.

In the following steps you will make a series of adjustments and pre-scans

while working in the KODAK Driver window. When you are satisfied

with the adjustments you have made, you will click S^CAN; a scan oc-

curs — with the adjustments you have made applied to the resultant

data — and the scan data appears in a Photoshop Window.

IMPORTANT: As you complete the steps below you may be prompted with

instructions requiring that you the remove the film holder and so on to

allow the Scanner to refocus. Two actions — changing the film size and/or

changing the magnification — result in the need for the Scanner to

recalibrate and focus. If you are in an environment where you rarely change

these settings then you will only rarely need to allow the Scanner to

recalibrate and focus; however, if you often change either or both of these

settings then you will need to allow the Scanner to recalibrate and focus

more frequently. In either environment, the Scanner software will prompt

you — as described in more detail in the following steps — with the exact

actions you must complete. Be sure to follow those steps carefully.

Loading the Film Holder

Follow directions in Chapter 4 “Loading the Film and Slide Holders —

Macintosh Computer” to:

1. Load the film or slide holder.

2. Place the holder in the Scanner.

NOTE: Do not have a high level of direct light around the film holder area of

the Scanner.

Operating the KODAK Driver

Follow the steps in this section to use the controls on the KODAK Driver

window.

NOTE: As you use the Scanner, the settings you have in effect each time you

leave the KODAK Driver are retained and will be in effect the next time you use

the driver.

Set the Film Type

1. Set the film type to match your film by choosing the film type from the

large number of choices on the F^ILMpopup menu.

Set the Film Size

2. If the FILM SIZE does not match the film you will scan, choose the

correct size from the F^ILMSIZE popup menu.

PreScan the Image (and Calibrate the Scanner)

3. Click PRESCAN. When you have completed parts A through E of this

step, a color image of the photo currently in position will appear in

the KODAK Driver window. You can use this image to determine

whether additional adjustments are needed before final scanning. If

B & W is on (see below), the prescan appears in black-and-white.

Change the Magnification Adjustment

4. (Optional) Change the MAGNIFICATION ADJUSTMENT if desired by moving

its slider or typing an integer value from -10 to 10 in the text box to

the right of the slider. The illustrations below for a 6x7 image demon-

strate the operation of this adjustment. (The film has been removed

from the holder to emphasize the border in these illustrations.)

NOTES: If you change the magnification adjustment, the Scanner must

refocus. As prompted by the message that occurs, remove a film holder if

present and place the calibration mask into the Scanner as explained in an

earlier step of this section. Follow additional prompts as they appear to:

remove the calibration mask, replace the film holder (with your film in it),

and wait for focusing to complete.

The magnification adjustment for each film size is maintained from work

session to work session.

You determine the “optimal” setting for your images. To ensure that as

many pixels of the imager as possible are used for you images, your

image should fill the scanning area vertically. This will typically occur

with the slider in the middle (nominal) range of the scanner either at,

or within a few percentage points either way, of the center of the

slider.

However you may wish to use other settings. To ensure that you

obtain all of the image for one piece of film after another, you may

wish to leave magnification at the negative end (underscanning) of the

magnification slider. On the other hand if you always have “extra”

space around the portion of the image you want to use, then you may

wish to leave magnification at the positive end (overscanning) of the

magnification slider.

The most recently used magnification setting for each film size is

maintained from one work session to the next in the preferences file

for the Scanner.

PreScan the Image Again

5. If you have changed the MAGNIFICATION ADJUSTMENT in the previous step,

click P^RESCAN to see the result of the changed magnification setting;

repeat steps 4 and 5 as desired.

Select the Image

6. A. (Optional) Click SELECT.

NOTE: If you have changed the film size, the Scanner must recalibrate

and focus. As prompted by the messages that appear, remove a film

holder if present and place the calibration mask into the Scanner. Follow

additional prompts as they appear to: remove the calibration mask,

replace the film holder (with your film in it), and wait for recalibration

and focusing to complete.

A low-resolution black-and-white scan occurs every two seconds,

with the image displayed in the window. (The S^ELECTbutton

changes to S^TOPSELECT. Scanning will stop automatically after 10

minutes if no additional action is taken.)

B. (Optional) If you are using 35 mm film or slides, and you do not

see the image you want, move the film or slide holder to the left

or right — while scans continue — until you see the image you

want. (Because scanning may occur while you are moving the

holder, you may see blurred images until after you stop moving

the holder.)

C. If you are using film sizes other than 35 mm, and you do not see

the image you want, click S^TOPSELECT, remove the film holder,

center the desired image in the holder, reinsert the holder, and

click S^ELECTagain.

D. When you see the image you want, click S^TOPSELECT.

E. Click P^RESCAN to obtain a color image in the KODAK Driver

window.

Set Auto Balance

7. (Optional) Set AUTO BAL. For most customers the AUTO BAL suggested

setting of “on” will automatically provide the proper “scene” balance.

However, you may need to turn off A^UTOBAL for certain images such

as computer generated graphics or scenes with dominant colors. If

you change this setting, click V^IEWCHANGES to see the effect of the

change.

NOTE: If the original prescan only needs fine color and/or brightness adjust-

ments, do not turn off A^UTOBAL; instead, adjust color and/or brightness as

described in “Change Color Levels” and “Change Brightness” below.

Rotate the Image

8. (Optional) Click 90° CCW, 180°, or 90° CW to rotate the image 90°

counterclockwise (CCW), 180°, or 90° clockwise (CW), respectively.

Click N^ORMALto display the image as it is oriented in the film or slide

holder.

Sharpen the Image

9. (Optional) Use the SHARPEN popup menu to adjust the level of edge

definition between image elements (pixels). Choose O^FF, NORMAL or

H^IGH; HIGH provides the most definition. Later, when you click SCAN,

the time required to complete the scan will increase slightly if you

select N^ORMALor HIGH.

NOTE: There is no immediate response when a SHARPEN option is selected;

instead this choice takes effect later when you click P^RESCAN or SCAN.

Set the Image to Black and White

10. (Optional) Click B & W to have all subsequent actions — including

the final scan — occur in black and white.

Focus the Image

11. (Optional) Use the Scanner to focus your image:

NOTE: You could focus the image without Step A below; however Step A is

helpful when working with an image that contains one area that is sharper

than the rest of the image.

A. Drag the pointer, pulling the selection rectangle around the

portion of the image that is the sharpest (in the best focus); the

area should contain a significant amount of detail.

NOTES: The focusing algorithm operates on the area inside the selection

rectangle, optimizing on your selection and focusing the rest of the

image accordingly.

To change the size of an existing selected area, press and hold down the

Command ( ) key. With the key down, when you move the crossbar

cursor over the edge of the selection rectangle, the crossbar turns into

arrows. Drag the mouse on any corner or side of the selection rectangle,

changing the size of the selection rectangle. Then release the Command

( ) key and mouse button.

To move an existing selection rectangle, place the crossbar cursor inside

the selection rectangle. Press and hold down the Command ( ) key; the

crossbar becomes a hand. Drag the cursor, moving the selection rect-

angle to its new location. Then release the Command ( ) key and mouse

button.

B. Click FOCUS. You will hear one buzz after another during the

focusing process. A P^RESCAN is done automatically once FOCUS is

complete, and the image appears.

C. Click once to remove the selection rectangle; this will ensure that

later when you do a scan you obtain the full image, not just the

small portion within the focus rectangle.

Change Color Levels

on brightness, and you may still need to adjust brightness as described

next in “Change Brightness.”

B. Adjust the balance sliders. Use this method when there is no

known gray or white spot in the image or when additional fine

adjustments are desired after using method A.

Drag the red/cyan, green/magenta, and/or blue/yellow sliders as

desired; then click V^IEWCHANGES to see the effect of the changes.

NOTES: If desired, click on the RESET DEFAULTS button to return all balance

settings to 0 (for the current film type selected). Otherwise, current settings

will be saved from one work session to the next for the selected film type

until they are changed.

When you move the pointer over the image, the arrow pointer becomes a

cross-hair pointer, and red (R), green (G), and blue (B) values at the location

of the pointer appear near the lower right-hand corner of the image.

Each SCSI device connected to the same computer must have a different

SCSI ID number.

1. If SCSI devices other than the Scanner are connected to your com-

puter, determine their SCSI identification numbers so that you can

select a different number for the Scanner. (If necessary, refer to the

documentation for those devices to determine how to find their

numbers.)

2. If your PC has an internal SCSI disk drive(s), determine its SCSI identi-

fication number(s) so that you can select a different number for the

Scanner.

3. Double-check to make sure that the power to the Scanner is off (O).

(The O end of the switch should be pressed in and the green light at

the top left front corner of the Scanner should be off.)

4. Set the Scanner to an unused number by pressing the bottom button to

go to a higher number or the top button to go to a lower number. Do

not assign the number of any other attached SCSI device, do not

assign the number used by your SCSI host adapter, and never assign 8

or 9; additionally, consult your SCSI host adapter manual to see if

other SCSI IDs should not be used. Assign high ID numbers to devices

used most frequently.

NOTE: Make sure the power to the Scanner is off if you change its ID number at a

later time.

KODAK TWAIN Driver

This section describes how to install the KODAK TWAIN Driver available

for use with the Scanner.

TWAIN is a set of written specifications developed by a consortium of

vendors, that when implemented in software allows you to acquire data

from a peripheral (such as a film scanner or digital camera) directly into

your software application (such as image-editing software) without leaving

the application. Software that incorporates the specifications is called

“TWAIN compliant.” TWAIN compliant software applications should be

able to obtain image data from any TWAIN compliant source of data,

such as the KODAK driver described in this chapter.

The availability of the KODAK Driver for TWAIN compliant PC applica-

tions means that you may be able to use the Scanner with the growing

number of software applications that support the TWAIN specifications.

When you use the Scanner, you can install and use the TWAIN compliant

driver for use with ASPI (Advanced SCSI Programming Interface) Windows

host adapters such as those available from Adaptec, Inc. running EZ-SCSI

4.01 or later.

IMPORTANT: This KODAK Driver is intended for use with applications that are

ASPI compliant for Windows, and not for use with applications that are ASPI

compliant for other operating platforms.

Installing TWAIN Compliant KODAK Driver

NOTES: We assume that a technician has installed a supported SCSI host adapter

in your PC. If that has not occurred, obtain and install an ASPI compliant host

adapter such as those available from Adaptec, Inc. running EZ-SCSI 4.01 or later.

To use an ASPI compliant SCSI host adapter, you must install the Windows ASPI

files that accompany it. The KODAK Driver for use with ASPI compliant Windows

host adapters will not work properly unless these files have been installed.

The process described in this section automatically:

Creates a subdirectory named “TWAIN” in the Windows directory. (If

you have other TWAIN compliant devices, this subdirectory may

already exist; if so, a new one is not created.)

Creates (if one does not already exist), a “RFS3570” subdirectory

within the “TWAIN” directory.

Places a set of files within the “RFS3570” subdirectory.

Follow these steps to install the KODAK Driver for TWAIN compliant PC

applications for use with the Scanner. This is a onetime operation that you

must perform before you can obtain images from the Scanner.

1. Turn on your PC.

2. If it has not been configured to start automatically, start Microsoft

Windows by typing ^WINat the DOS prompt (C:\>) and pressing Enter;

then make sure that you are in the Program Manager.

3. Locate the diskette labeled “KODAK Driver for use with (TWAIN

Compliant) KODAK Professional RFS 3570 Film Scanner.”

4. If the diskette is not locked, lock it by sliding the tab on the back to

reveal a small hole. This will prevent the contents of the disk from

being changed inadvertently, and may aid in preventing the spread of

computer viruses to this diskette.

Using KODAK Driver with

Windows Applications — PC

This chapter describes how to use the KODAK TWAIN Driver with appli-

cations software on your PC. With a KODAK Driver, you can acquire

images from the Scanner into your applications software and then save the

images as files on your computer hard disk.

This chapter describes how to:

Use a KODAK Driver for TWAIN compliant PC applications to access

the KODAK Driver window.

Use Scanner buttons and indicators to control the scan.

Produce a scan and have it appear in an untitled window in your

TWAIN compliant application.

Turn off the Scanner.

The end of the chapter also includes a full reference section of all soft-

ware features.

We assume you are familiar with the operation of your PC and appropri-

ate applications software in the Windows environment, and that you have

your Scanner connected properly to your PC as described in “Installing

the Scanner Hardware” in Chapter 7.

We also assume you have read and are familiar with the material con-

tained in:

“Important Safeguards and Precautions” at the front of the manual.

“Installing the KODAK Drivers for Use with Your PC” in Chapter 7.

Using a KODAK Driver for TWAIN

Compliant PC Applications

Not all TWAIN compliant applications provide access to TWAIN drivers

in the same way. As a result, for demonstration purposes this section

provides an example using the KODAK Driver with Adobe Photoshop

3.0.5 for Windows.

If you use other software, refer to its documentation to determine if it is

TWAIN compliant, and if it is, how it provides access to TWAIN drivers.

You should first :

1. With your computer, scanner, and other SCSI devices (if present)

turned off, turn on the Scanner by pressing the (I) end of the power

switch on the back of the Scanner. The POWER indicator light, a

small green light at the top front left corner of the Scanner, turns on.

You’ll hear the Scanner perform a self-test by moving its internal

mechanism. Then the scanner is ready for use — no warm-up is

required.

CAUTION: Always turn on the Scanner before you turn on

your computer; it is important that you follow this procedure.

2. If other SCSI devices are present, turn them on. (SCSI devices can be

turned on in any order.)

3. Turn on your PC.

4. If it has not been configured to start automatically, start Microsoft

Windows by typing ^WINat the DOS prompt (C:\>) and pressing Enter.

NOTE: As you use a variety of TWAIN compliant software, it may be helpful to

know how the TWAIN specifications expect applications to perform. The specifi-

cations provide for a consistent software interface by encouraging software

developers to include two specific commands — S^ELECTSOURCE and ACQUIRE — on

the F^ILEmenu. The specification intends that users should first choose SELECT

SOURCE which should display a list of TWAIN compliant device drivers installed

on the system. After the user selects a driver from the list, he/she should be

returned to the application. The user should then choose A^CQUIREwhich should

open access to the device and allow the user to obtain image data. However, all

software does not implement the specifications as intended.

IMPORTANT: Some image-editing software takes all available RAM by default at

start-up. The TWAIN driver will not work if this occurs. To avoid the problem, set

the memory preference for your application (often found on the F^ILEmenu) so that

there is at least one megabyte of free RAM.

Adobe Photoshop 2.5 and 3.0 for Windows

Once you have installed the TWAIN driver(s) as described in Chapter 7,

and are in Windows, you use the driver by following these steps.

NOTE: Refer to the “Important” statement just above.

1. Run Adobe Photoshop for Windows.

2. Choose S^ELECTTWAIN SOURCE on the ACQUIRE submenu on the Adobe

Photoshop F^ILEmenu; the SELECT SOURCE dialog box appears.

3. Click the scanner choice.

4. Click S^ELECT; you are returned to Adobe Photoshop.

NOTE: The choice of source, and other settings you establish while using the

driver, are maintained in a preferences file for the TWAIN compliant driver;

you do not need to repeat steps 2 through 4 each time you use the driver.

5. Choose TWAIN (TWAIN ACQUIRE in Adobe Photoshop 3.0) on the

A^CQUIREsubmenu on the FILE menu.

6. Wait, and when start-up is complete, the KODAK Driver window

appears.

NOTE: If you see a message that “The Scanner was not found . . .” refer

to this message in “Appendix D — Messages from the KODAK Drivers.”

Producing Scanned Images

In this section you will load your film or slides into the Scanner and then

generate scans by making selections from the KODAK Driver window.

In the following steps you will make a series of adjustments and pre-scans

while working in the KODAK Driver. When you are satisfied with the

adjustments you have made, you will click S^CAN; a scan occurs — with

the adjustments you have made applied to the resultant data — and the

scan data appears in a window in your software application.

IMPORTANT: As you complete the steps below you may be prompted

with instructions requiring that you the remove the film holder and so on

to allow the Scanner to refocus. Two actions — changing the film size

and/or changing the magnification — result in the need for the Scanner

to recalibrate and focus. If you are in an environment where you rarely

change these settings then you will only rarely need to allow the Scanner

to recalibrate and focus; however, if you often change either or both of

these settings then you will need to allow the Scanner to recalibrate and

focus more frequently. In either environment, the Scanner software will

prompt you — as described in more detail in the following steps — with

the exact actions you must complete. Be sure to follow these steps

carefully.

Loading the Film Holder

Follow directions in Chapter 8, “Loading the Film and Slide

Holders — PC” to:

1. Load the film or slide holder.

2. Place the holder in the Scanner.

NOTE: Do not have a high level of direct light around the film holder area of

the Scanner.

Operating the KODAK Driver

Follow the steps in this section to use the controls on the KODAK Driver

window.

NOTE: As you use the Scanner, the settings you have in effect each time you

leave the KODAK Driver are retained and will be in effect the next time you use

the driver.

Set the Film Type

1. Set the film type to match your film by choosing the film type from the

large number of choices on the F^ILMdrop down list box.

Set the Film Size

2. If the FILM SIZE does not match the film you will scan, choose the

correct size from the F^ILMSIZE drop down list box.

PreScan the Image (and Calibrate the Scanner)

3. Click PRESCAN. When you have completed parts A through E of this

step, a color image of the photo currently in position will appear in

the KODAK Driver window. You can use this image to determine

whether additional adjustments are needed before final scanning. If

B & W is on (see below), the prescan appears in black-and-white.
