22 Microtek ScanWizard Pro for Mac OS X
To choose your scan material:
1. Choose the Scan Material command in the Preferences menu. From the
submenu that appears, select your scan material; a check will appear next
to the selected option.
2. Alternatively, you can click the Scan Material pop-up menu and then
choose the correct scan material from the drop-down menu that appears.
Scan Material
This command allows you to select the correct scan material. Scan materials
can be classified into three types:
• Reflectives, such as photographs or prints.
• Positive transparencies, such as slides.
• Negative film, such as the negative film you use for your camera.
The default scan material depends upon the scanner you are using, and the
choices available to you in the Scan Material submenu will also depend on your
equipment.
For instance, the Positive and Negative options appear only if you are using a
dual-bed SnapTrans™ scanner such as the ScanMaker 8700 or if you are using
a Transparent Media Adapter (TMA) with your flatbed scanner.
If you are scanning negatives or positives, make sure you specify the correct
scan material, or you will get inaccurate scanning results.
