3.3 Scan an Original
1. Insert your photo into the plastic sheath supplied with scanner.
(The detailed usage of the plastic sheath is described in the next
page.)
2. With the side to be scanned facing upward and in correct
orientation (bottom of photo against light/power button side), place
the left edge of the original against the left edge of the feed slot,
and then adjust the guide lever so that it is against the right side of
the original.
3. Gently push the original into the feeding slot and let go when it
begins to feed into the slot.
4. When the scan is completed, the scanner will automatically create a
folder titled “Photo1” on your memory card or flash card, which will
hold the first 9999 scans. Then “Photo2” folder will be created for
the next 9999 scans, and so on.
(Each scanned image is given a file name with the prefix img
followed by a 4- digit sequential number in the order the images
are stored. For example, img0001.jpg, img0002.jpg, etc.)
Note:
zDo not remove the memory card or disconnect the power supply
while the indicators are blinking.
zThis scanner only supports output images in JPEG (.jpg) format,
and the date/ time attribute will not be added.
zIf the memory card is near full (lower than 1MB), the power
indicator light blinks. Use another card or delete some files on it if
necessary.
zInsert only one original at a time, and insert the next original only
when the previous one is done and the blinking has stopped,
otherwise the scanner may malfunction.

Plastic Sheaths
Use the clear plastic sheath (included) when scanning photos to ensure
the best scanning results. The sheath helps eliminate the possibility of
de-focusing due to the uneven surface of curled photos.
Curled photo
Fuzzy areas that result from the uneven surface of the curled photo
1. Insert the photo into the plastic sheath as shown below.
2. Insert the plastic sheath, flat and level, into the scanner’s feeding
slot, folded side first, image facing up.
Note:
zKeeping the original flat and level when feeding prevents possible
jamming.
zKeep originals free from finger prints, oil, dirt, and dust for
optimum scanned image quality.
zRemove photos from the plastic sheath after scanning to prevent
the sheath from sticking to the photos over time.
zIf the plastic sheaths are not in use, store them in a safe place and
keep them protected from accumulating dust.
3.4 Power off the Scanner
After all originals are scanned, press and hold the power button for
about 2 seconds. Now you can safely disconnect the power and
remove the memory card or flash card from the scanner.
