Scanning Your Film
You can scan your film in either Home Mode or Professional Mode. For greater
control over your scanned images, choose Professional Mode.
Note: Be sure to select the correct Document Type (in Home Mode) or Film Type (in
Professional Mode): Positive Film, Color Negative Film, or B&W Negative Film.
Also, be sure to adjust the focus if you’re placing your film directly on the glass (instead
of in a holder) or are using film holders other than those that came with the scanner. See
page 50.
If you’re using Professional Mode, follow these steps:
1. Open your imaging application, then choose the Import (or Acquire ) option in
the application and select Epson Expression 10000XL .
Note: If you are using Windows XP and choose WIA-EPSON Expression
10000XL, certain features won’t be available.
The EPSON Scan dialog box
opens.
2. Select Professional Mode
from the selection box at the
top of the screen.
Note: You may have to scroll
down to see all of the settings.
3. Under the Original settings,
select Film as your
Document Type, and then
select the correct Film Type
(
Positive Film , Color
Negative Film , or B&W Negative Film ).
4. Under the Destination settings, choose a color depth from the Image Type menu:
■ 48-bit Color for the highest quality color scans
Note: If you choose this option, make sure your application supports 48-bit
image files (Photoshop Elements does not support 48-bit color). This option
significantly increases your file size.
■ 24-bit Color for high quality color scans
