Epson Fluid Mount - Manual (Page 2)

2 Using Your Epson Fluid Mount Accessory
Follow these steps to scan film with your Epson fluid mount:
1. Cut a sheet of clear mounting film to fit within the frame of the fluid mount
tray. The sheet must be large enough to cover the film you’re going to scan.
2. Set the Epson fluid mount guide on your work table. Then place the fluid
mount tray on top of the guide.
Note: Use the grid to align your film while mounting it on the tray. The grid
indicates the optimal area for 6400 dpi scanning.
3. Place a drop or two of
mounting fluid on the glass
tray where you want to mount
your film. Only a few drops are
needed to mount a six-frame
35-mm strip.
Note: You need to work
quickly so the mounting fluid
doesn’t evaporate.
4. Place your film over the wetted
area. Use the grid to align your
film.
5. Apply a small amount of fluid
to the top of your film.
6. Place the clear mounting film on top. Use a lint-free cloth or gloved hands to
press outward toward the edges to remove trapped air bubbles.
