Removing Dust and Scratch Marks From Film or Slides

Using the Dust Removal feature in EPSON Scan's Full Auto or Professional Mode, you can virtually "clean" the dust marks from film or slides as you scan them.

Dust Removal Level: Medium

Your scanner and its EPSON Scan software are equipped with the Digital ICE ^™ and Digital ICE Lite ^™ features that remove stubborn dust or scratch marks from color film or slides.

Digital ICE(TM) Mode: Digital ICE(TM) - Quality Digital ICE(TM) - Quality Digital ICE Lite(TM) - Speed

DIGITAL ICE will not harm image details while Dust Removal may degrade the image. However, it takes longer to scan using DIGITAL ICE.

For detailed steps on using these features, see the on-screen User's Guide.

Reading the Scanner Light

If an error occurs, the scanner stops operating and the scanner light flashes red. This indicates one of the following problems:

☐ The scanner is not connected to your computer properly or your software is not fully installed. See the Start Here sheet that came with your scanner for instructions on installing the scanner software and connecting the scanner to your computer.
☐The scanner and/or the transparency unit transportation lock is locked. Slide the lock to the unlock position.
☐ The scanner cover cable is not connected to the scanner's OPTION port. Connect the cable to the port.

After trying these solutions, turn off the scanner using its power button, then turn it back on.

If the scanner light is still flashing:

☐The scanner may be malfunctioning.
☐The scanner lamp may need to be replaced.
☐ The connected optional equipment may be malfunctioning.

Contact Epson. See the on-screen User's Guide for details.

Transporting the Scanner

Before transporting the scanner for a long distance or storing it for an extended period of time, you need to lock the scanner's carriage and transparency unit to prevent damage.

1. Plug in the scanner, turn on the scanner using its power button, and wait until the carriage moves to the home position (near the cover hinge). While the scanner light is green, turn off the scanner using its power button.

2. Open the scanner cover and slide the transparency unit transportation lock to the locked position. Then close the scanner cover.
