You are attempting to scan film with
extremely dark or bright contents./
The spaces between frames are
extremely narrow (0.08" / 2 mm is
standard).
If thumbnails are not displayed properly after previewing with ScanGear
MP, scan in the Advanced Mode. For more information, refer to the Scan
Guide.
Cause
Action
Film condition is poor due to faded
colors.
In the ScanGear MP’s Advanced Mode/Image Settings, correct the image
using the [Fading Correction] and [Grain Correction] functions.
Note
If a print out of an image does not appear satisfactory or the same as what
you see on the monitor, you may need to change the print settings, or the
machine itself may have engaged in problems. See
“Ink Does Not Come
Out/Printing is Blurred/Colors are Wrong/White Streaks/Straight Lines are
