Focus calibration • Flatbed scanners
Focus calibration is rarely necessary for ScanMate flatbed scanners, but it should be carried out
at the time of installation.
A special focus calibration target is supplied with the scanner. It should be kept in a safe place
after initial calibration, in case it is needed later.
1 • Place the target on the mounting plate.
2 • Check that the preview type is set at Transmission, and make a preview of the full scan area.
3 • Crop a small area (ca. 2 x 2 cm or 1" x 1") in the part of the focus target with the parallel
lines.
4 • Choose Calibrate Focus from the Calibration menu.

• ScanMate F10: Mount the target on the register pins.
• Other scanners: Tape the target across the base plate of the mounting plate,
lining it up parallel to the slit in the white tray under the mounting plate.
The calibration will be carried out and a message will appear to tell you
whether it was successful.
