UNLOADING A FULLY
EXPOSED ROLL OF
FILM

Use the following steps to unload a fully exposed roll of film
(simplex, duplex, or duo format):

It is assumed that all documents have been deposited in the
exit hopper and the Stop key has been pressed.

1.

Enter function code F29 Advance Film to End of Roll.
This will result in the entire length of the film being
advanced onto the take-up spool.

2.

Open the cassette access door.

3.

Swing the drive release lever (green handle) out.

4.

Remove film cassette(s).

5.

Place the cassette on a flat surface, with the top cover
side up.

6.

Press down on the cover latch and turn counterclockwise
to unlock the cover.

7.

Remove the top cover and set it aside.

8.

Place a finger over the take-up spool flange to prevent the
film from unwinding and lift up to remove the spool of film.

9.

Place the spool into the film box. Allow approximately
2 to 3 inches (5 to 8 cm) of the film to protrude from under
the lid of the box. Close the top of the box securely.

10. Write identification data (i.e., subject, title, date, job

number, etc.) on the film box label. The film is now ready
for processing.

NOTE:

Replace the top cover back on the cassette(s),
regardless of whether or not you immediately reload
the cassette. This will help extend battery life.
