After the paper size is selected, the film is fed into the film mask through the film
feeder. While the film is transported through the film mask and into the film take-up, a
prescan determines the exposure data for each frame of the film.

After the main computer calculates the correction data, the frames are digitized. The
film is removed from the film take-up and the frames are positioned and exposed one
by one in the film mask. Three color density extracts are exposed on the CCD of
each frame by means of the color filter wheel (scan, approximately 2000 x 3000
pixels).

For slides, the prescan is also performed by means of the CCD chip.
