Slide Scanner Instructions

SLIDES

The Photosmart scanner will scan photos (up to 5 x 7), negatives, and slides. Once scanned, these images can be incorporated into web pages, PowerPoint presentations, and other documents.

  1. On Photosmart Scanner unit, choose the image type you are going to scan (slides, negatives, photo). To change your selection, push the button on the scanner unit located under the three images until the green light is under your desired selection.
  2. On the desktop, double click the HP Film Scanner S20 icon.
  3. In the "Photo Type" field, choose the type of photo, slide, or negative you are going to be scanning. Depending on the type of image you have selected on the scanning unit, there will be different choices in the drop-down menu.
  4. After choosing the photo type, choose the scan resolution for saving the picture. The lower number of DPI's (Dots per inch) the less clear the image will be. The higher the number, the sharper it will be. Remember also, more DPI's means more memory will be needed to store that image.
  5. Read the scanner directions (located on the Photosmart scanner) on inserting your image. Make sure it is in inserted properly and do NOT force it in. If you have it inserted properly, the scanner will slide the image in itself.
    (NOTE: The emulision side of the slide or negative is the non-reflective side.)
  6. The scanner will automatically scan the picture and display the image in the preview scan window. Here you can adjust various qualities of the image to your liking. To change the name of the picture, click on the name under the image. Highlight the name and then press delete and enter the desired name.
  7. When you are satisfied with how the image looks, click final scan to save the image. A save window box will pop up and give you choices of where you would like to save the image. Choose where and then click save.
  8. After scanning is finished, the image is automatically ejected from the machine.
