Scanning Transparencies and Film
Before scanning transparent documents, you need to remove
the scanner’s reflective document mat; this exposes the scanner’s
transparency unit (light source), which is built into the lid.
If you’re scanning slides or film strips, you’ll also need to use
one of the film holders.
