Features of the Microfilm Scanner 300II
❏ Space saving
The economical design of this compact film scanner requires less
space on your desk or work table.
❏ Internal SCSI-USB converter
SCSI-USB converter is built-in, so you can use both SCSI and
USB interfaces. See “Preparing the computer (scanner mode)”
(➞ P.20)
❏ Automatic film polarity detection
The unit automatically detects the presence of negative film or
positive film and sets itself accordingly.
❏ Uses a variety of film formats
A wide variety of roll/fiche carriers or auto carriers can be in-
stalled so you can use several film formats like microfiche, aper-
ture card, and roll film.
❏ Easy operation
Operations like border removal and image trimming can be per-
formed at the press of a few keys before scanning.
❏ Reader-Printer mode (CapturePerfect)
This is a mode which enables the scanner to perform the same
Reader-Printer functions as a Microfilm printer does. Scanned im-
ages can be printed out directly through a designated printer.
❏ Expandability
By adding the optional DMP board, sold separately, in the Micro-
film Scanner 300II, the scanner can be used as a Digital Micro-
film Printer (DMP).

About operation modes
The following operating modes are available with this scanner.
Select one of the following modes according to your system envi-
ronment before using the scanner. For details, contact your ser-
vice representative.
❏ Scanner mode
Using this scanner in connection with a personal computer, the
image projected on the scanner’s screen can be saved in the PC as
image data, or printed out through a printer connected to the PC.
❏ DMP mode
By installing the optional DMP board in the scanner and connect-
ing it to a DMP-dedicated printer, the MS300II can be used as a
digital microfilm printer (DMP). The image projected on the
scanner’s screen can be printed out through the DMP-dedicated
printer. In this case, no personal computer is required.
❏ Reader-printer mode
Using the CapturePerfect bundled with the MS300II, the scanner
that is set to the Scanner mode will operate as if it is set to the
DMP mode. The image projected on the scanner’s screen can be
printed out directly through a printer connected to the personal
computer. In this case, however, the image cannot be saved in the
PC as image data.
When the DMP board is installed in this scanner, switch
the “DMP mode” and “scanner mode” in the user mode
before use. (➞P.40 “USER MODE”)
If the computer is connected with the user mode set to
“DMP mode” when the DMP board is installed in this
scanner and the MS300II is used as a scanner, the
operation panel may not be operable or other prob-
lems may occur.

■ MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING ■
MAINTENANCE AND
TROUBLESHOOTING
This part of the manual describes how to replace the halogen lamp,
cleaning the scanner and dealing with errors. Regular scanner
maintenance is essential to eusure optimum performance and a
long service life from your scanner.
Replacing the lamp
The lamp projects the film image onto the screen, and the proce-
dure for replacing the lamp is described below, along with some
precautions to be observed when handling the lamp unit. If the
lamp burns out, use the procedure below to replace it.
When the lamp burns out, “LP” appears on the Print/Error dis-
play.
HEAT CAUTION
Immediately after the lamp burns out, the lamp and
the metal components of the lamp unit are very hot. To
avoid being burned, allow the lamp ample time to cool
down before touching it. The lamp will cool down more
quickly if you leave the scanner switched on for some
minutes with “LP” displayed. After checking that the
lamp and the metal components have cooled down,
proceed with lamp replacement.
1. When the lamp burns out, leave the scanner switched on for
several minutes until the lamp has cooled down.
After waiting at least 5 minutes, check that the lamp
has cooled down and then switch the scanner off.
2. Firmly grip the lamp unit on the right side of the main unit and
slowly pull the lamp unit out.
When you remove the lamp unit, “L5” appears in the
Print/Error display.
CAUTION
To avoid injury, do not touch the interior of the main
unit after you have removed the lamp unit.
3. Push the lever on the side of the lamp and remove the burned
out lamp.
HEAT CAUTION
Immediately after the lamp burns out, the lamp and
the metal components of the lamp unit are very hot.
Never handle the lamp or lamp unit while they are still
hot.

4. Fit the new lamp so that the manufacturer’s mark is facing
upwards and check that the lamp is fully inserted into the socket
so that there is no gap between the lamp and the lamp socket.
• Use only Canon-specified lamps as replacements.
• Take care not to touch the bulb in the new lamp.
Soiling or fingermarks on the bulb can adversely
affect image quality and shorten the service life of
the bulb.
• Always check that there is no gap between the lamp
and the lamp socket. Any gap between the lamp
and the lamp socket will result in damage to the lamp
holder.
Check that there
is no gap between
the lamp and the
lamp socket.
5. Insert the lamp unit into the main unit with firm, even pres-
sure until it locks into place.

■ MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING ■
Cleaning mode
Cleaning mode is a mode for cleaning the Fileprint 470’s fixing
rollers. Clean the fixing rollers in the Fileprint 470 if black spots
appear on the front or back of the paper that is printed out.
The following describes the procedure for cleaning the fixing roll-
ers. Refer to the user’s guide for the Fileprint 470 for information
about taking care of the Fileprint 470.
Cleaning the Fixing Rollers
1. Select the Cleaning mode in the user mode settings.
The paper size currently selected will be displayed on the Print/
Error display.
2. Open the multi-purpose tray of the Fileprint 470 and set a sheet
of paper of the selected size on it.
3. Press the Start key. The cleaning paper will be printed out and
[CL] will be displayed on the printing count indicator.
Cleaning paper
To reset the Cleaning mode midway, press the Clear/
Stop key before pressing the Start key. Once the clean-
ing paper is printed out, you cannot reset the Cleaning
mode midway; therefore, you must go through the en-
tire cleaning procedure for the fixing rollers till the end.
4. Set the cleaning paper on the multi-purpose tray facing the
printed side down and pointing the arrow inward.
5. Press the Start key to start cleaning the fixing rollers.
Cleaning the fixing rollers requires about 75 seconds.
Other operations cannot be done while the fixing roll-
ers are being cleaned, so do not touch anything.
6. When the cleaning is completed, the Print/Error display will
return to normal.
If black spots still appear on the front or back of the
printouts after the fixing rollers are cleaned, instead of
using printed cleaning sheets, put blank A4 size paper
in the multi-purpose tray and clean them again.

Service Call Errors
Every time you turn on the main unit, the unit automatically per-
forms a self-diagnostic test. If the unit detects a problem at power
on, or at any other time during operation, it will display a Service
Call Error message in the display. A Service Call Error is indi-
cated by an error code consisting of an “E” followed by three
digits (“Ennn” where “n” indicates a number). This code is dis-
played in 2 parts as “En” followed by “nn”. (Eg. “E123” is dis-
played as “E1” followed by “23”.)
Follow the procedure below when a Service Call Error occurs.
1. Immediately switch off the scanner and wait several minutes.
2. Switch the scanner on again and check the scanner status.
When a service call error occurs, it is sometimes pos-
sible to resolve the problem simply by switching the
scanner off for a while and then switching it on again.
■ If the “E000” (fixer error) is displayed
The service call error “E000” is a printer fixer error. Switch off
the scanner and any peripheral units such as the carrier, unplug
the power cord and contact an authorized Canon service techni-
cian.
■ When you cannot clear a service call error
Make a note of the error code and the nature of the problem. Then
switch off the scanner and any peripheral units such as the carrier,
unplug the power cord and contact an authorized Canon service
technician.
