1 Introduction  
The Polaroid SprintScan 45 multi-format film scanner allows  
you to capture and convert film images into electronic files  
that you can edit and incorporate into your documents and  
presentations. The scanner can be connected to a Macintosh  
computer, or an IBM-compatible computer with a SCSI host  
adapter installed (see page 2-6).  
For Macintosh users, the SprintScan 45 is shipped with a soft-  
ware plug-in that allows you to acquire images in any Adobe  
PhotoShop plug-in compliant application, then edit and print  
them from within the application. For users of the Windows  
operating system, the SprintScan 45 is shipped with a Micro-  
soft Windows 95-compliant 16-bit driver. For information on  
installing and using the software, see the software manual.

The scanner can accommodate 4x5, 2 /4 x 2 /4, 2 /4 x 2 /4,  
and 35mm film formats. In the 35mm format size, up to four  
images can be scanned at once. The unit can operate at volt-  
ages from 100V to 240V.  
The SprintScan 45 scanner captures images at 12 bits per  
color channel and converts that image data into 24-bit color  
images with over 16 million colors. It features multiple scan-  
ning modes, error-detection and self-diagnostic capability.

The digitized images can contain up to 4000 dpi (dots per  
inch) of image information. Color is achieved with a tri-color  
CCD in combination with a cold cathode fluorescent light  
source. Two modes are available:  
• 8-bit mode: Each dot can be represented by an 8-bit RGB  
code per color, resulting in 256 levels of gray, or 16.7 million  
colors. The original is scanned at 12-bits per channel, and the  
results are optimized to 8-bits per channel to produce a 24-bit  
RGB image.  
• 12-bit mode: Each dot can be represented by a 12-bit code  
per color, resulting in 4096 levels of gray or 68.7 billion RGB  
colors.

Positioning the scanner  
Place the scanner on a flat, stable surface, free of vibration.  
Leave at least 2 inches (50mm) of space around all sides and  
the top of the scanner for adequate ventilation, and leave  
room at the back to reach the power switch on the rear panel.  
Ca u t io n : As with any highly sensitive optical equipment,  
vibrations or bumping the scanner during use may result in  
picture defects. Locate the unit where it will not be disturbed  
during use.  
SCSI guidelines  
Ab o u t S CS I c h a in s  
The SCSI system uses special cables and termination to achieve  
communication between the computer and peripheral devices.  
To function properly, the combined length of the entire cable  
system must not exceed 19 1/2 feet (6 meters) and must include  
the appropriate number of terminators. Termination maintains  
the clarity of the SCSI signal along the chain of devices. A  
SCSI chain must always be terminated at both ends. Incorrect  
termination can permanently damage the computer, scanner,  
or any other device along the SCSI chain. Refer to the following  
guidelines and diagrams for more information.  
Te rm in a t io n  
The SCSI chain must be terminated at both ends of the chain.  
The beginning of the chain is typically the computer. Most  
Macintosh computers include a hard disk which is internally  
terminated. (If your computer does not include an internally-  
terminated hard disk, you must place an external terminator  
on the first device after the computer, between the device and  
the SCSI cable to the computer.)  
Intermediate devices in the chain should not be terminated. If  
you have an internally-terminated device, place it at the end of  
the chain. (Check the manual for the device to determine if it  
is internally terminated or not.) If none of your devices are  
internally terminated, place an external terminator on the last  
device.  
Setup and use

The SprintScan 45 scanner is unterminated. If it is the last  
device in the chain, add a terminator. See the illustrations on  
pages 2-9–2-10.  
P o w e rb o o k n o t e : According to Apple Computer, even  
though this computer has an internal hard disk, you should  
treat it as an unterminated device. This means that you must  
have two terminators on the SCSI chain. Apple also advises  
that if you have only one device connected to a Powerbook,  
you must have two terminators on this one device. Refer to  
the documentation included with your PowerBook.  
Co n n e c t io n t ip s  
• WARNING: ALL CONNECTIONS MUST BE MADE WITH  
THE POWER OFF ON THE SCANNER, THE COMPUTER,  
AND ALL SCSI DEVICES.  
• Always make SCSI connections firmly, connecting the clips or  
tightening the screws that secure cables and terminators. Most  
problems with SCSI devices are connection problems along  
the SCSI chain.  
• The SprintScan 45 scanner has two SCSI connectors; one has  
50 pins and one has 25. A SCSI cable can be connected to  
either port without affecting the performance of your equip-  
ment.  
• Each device on a SCSI chain must have a unique SCSI ID  
number. These numbers are described in the following  
section.  
• If a 50-to-50 pin cable is required, be sure to use a cable  
which meets the SCSI-2 specification, such as an Apple cable.

SCSI ID numbers  
WARNING: TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO YOUR HARDWARE  
AND SOFTWARE, READ THIS SECTION BEFORE TURNING  
ON YOUR SYSTEM.  
Each device on a SCSI chain must have a unique SCSI ID  
number from 0 to 6. The Apple Macintosh always uses SCSI  
ID number 7. The Macintosh internal hard drive usually uses  
SCSI ID number 0 or 1. Th e S p rin t S c a n 4 5 s c a n n e r is s e t  
a t t h e fa c t o ry t o S CS I ID n u m b e r 5 . If this number con-  
flicts with your hard drive or any other device on your SCSI  
chain, you must change either the SCSI ID number of the  
scanner or the SCSI ID number of the other device. Valid SCSI  
ID numbers are from 0 to 6.  
Ch a n g in g t h e S CS I ID  
o f t h e s c a n n e r  
The scanner is shipped with the SCSI ID number set to 5.  
To change the ID number, do the following:  
1 Turn the scanner off and disconnect it from your computer  
and all other SCSI devices.  
2 Locate the SCSI ID switch on the back of the scanner (picture  
1). Pressing the button marked (-) or (+) above and below the  
switch, change the number to an ID number that is unique  
from other numbers in the chain, from 0 to 6.  
3 The new number will take effect the next time the scanner is  
turned on.  
WARNING: IF TWO DEVICES ON A SCSI CHAIN HAVE THE  
SAME SCSI ID NUMBER, NEITHER WILL WORK CORRECTLY,  
AND DATA MAY BE DAMAGED WHEN YOU TURN ON THE  
DEVICES.

Installing a SCSI adapter in a PC  
If you are using a PC-compatible computer, you must have a  
SCSI host adapter installed in your computer for connection  
to the scanner. We recommend an Adaptec SCSI host  
adapter. Before connection, be sure the settings are correct;  
check the documentation for your adapter. The SprintScan 45  
scanner is compatible with most Windows ASPI-supported  
adapters (such as Adaptec).  
For detailed information about installing the card, refer to the  
instructions provided with your adapter card.  
Connecting the scanner to your computer  
WARNING: ALL CONNECTIONS MUST BE MADE WITH THE  
POWER OFF ON THE SCANNER, THE COMPUTER, AND ALL  
OTHER CONNECTED EQUIPMENT. PAY STRICT ATTENTION  
TO THE SEQUENCE OF INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS SECTION.  
FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO YOUR  
COMPUTER AND/OR THE SCANNER. SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT  
COVERED BY THE WARRANTY.  
1 Turn off your computer, and then turn off the scanner.  
2 Connect the 25-pin end of the data cable to the SCSI port on  
the back of your computer and the 50-pin end to the 50-pin  
port on the back of the scanner (picture 2).

The second port (25-pin) can be used to connect another SCSI  
device to the chain, using another SCSI cable.  
3 Terminate the signal at the last device in the chain. If the scan-  
ner is the last device, connect the terminator provided to the  
50-pin port. Then connect the SCSI cable to the terminator  
(picture 3). Be certain to use only SCSI-specified cables for all  
connections in the chain. For details, see pages 2-8–2-9.

Diagrams of various SCSI configurations  
The following diagrams illustrate different configurations.  
Find the appropriate configuration for your hardware, and  
follow the connection diagram and instructions.  
No t e : The shorter the SCSI chain, the better it will work. Use  
SCSI cables that are only as long as necessary. The chain may  
1
not exceed 19 /2 ft. (6m) total.

Troubleshooting  
When the scanner is powered up, the POWER indicator should  
come on and the READY indicator should flash. A few seconds  
later, after the scanner's self-test is completed, the READY  
indicator should shine steadily. The scanning lamp will come  
on and should stay on all the time.  
Problems can usually be detected when the power is first  
turned on. This section covers the most common problems  
and their solutions.  
Th e P OWER in d ic a t o r fa ils t o lig h t u p  
Turn the power switch off. Make sure that the scanner's  
power cord is grounded and plugged into an AC outlet. Then,  
try turning on the power again.  
If the scanner indicator still fails to light up, the fuse probably  
needs to be replaced.

Radio and television interference  
FCC No t ic e (U.S .A.)  
No t e : This equipment (Model: CS-4500) has been tested and  
found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,  
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are  
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful  
interference in a residential installation. This equipment gen-  
erates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not  
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may  
cause harmful interference to radio communications.  
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not  
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause  
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which  
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the  
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or  
more of the following measures:  
• Reorient/relocate the receiving antenna.  
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.  
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different  
from that to which the receiver is connected.  
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for  
help.  
No t e : Shielded interface cable with ferrite core installed on  
scanner connector end must be used with this equipment.  
Ca u t io n : Changes or modifications not expressly approved  
by the manufacturer responsible for compliance could void  
the users authority to operate the equipment.
