Using a second magazine – Hasselblad 949 User Manual

Page 19

Remove any slides that you have already scanned. Then, starting at

the front/top of the magazine, load new slides in the order in which

you would like to scan them. When standing in front of the scanner,

position each slide with the top pointing up and with any text

showing forward (not in mirror image).
Work your way towards the back of the magazine until you have

mounted all of the slides you want to scan or until there are no slots

left. Usually, you should not skip any slots; however, if you would like

to scan the magazine in two or more different batches, then leave two

empty slots between each batch. Single empty slots will be ignored.
Close the magazine drawer by rotating it up and pressing it into place

so that the metal clasp holds it at the top.

Using a Second Magazine

Load your extra magazine with slides. Start at the front of the

magazine (the side the slots lean towards) and load new slides in

the order in which you would like to scan them. Position each slide

with the top pointing up and with any text showing forward (not in

mirror image) as you look from the front of the magazine. Usually,

you should not skip any slots when loading slides into the magazine;

however, if you would like to scan the magazine in two or more

different batches, then leave two empty slots between each batch.

Single empty slots will be ignored.
Go to your scanner and open the magazine drawer by grasping it at

the top and pulling it down. It rotates forward on its hinge (B) and

then stops, exposing the magazine (C) with magazine drawer top (D)

facing out (see Figure 9, above).
The magazine drawer can be removed from its hinge. Do this now by

grabbing the bottom of the Slide Feeder near the hinge with one hand

and grasping the magazine drawer with the other hand. Hold the

drawer from below and about halfway up (see Figure 10, next page).

Use the hand that is holding the Feeder to keep the Feeder steady

while using your other hand to pull the drawer straight away from the

Feeder; rocking gently from left to right can help loosen it. The drawer

will come free from its hinge.
