Advanced Scanning / Scanning in the Manual Mode

# Selecting a Document Source

When scanning a reflective document placed on the document table of the scanner, leave the Document Source set to Flatbed. Other selections are available depending on what is installed. When scanning a transparent material, select TPU: Color Neg. Film, TPU: Monochrome Neg. Film, and TPU: Pos. Film.

| Note:

Uninstalled options are not displayed.

### Flatbed

Choose this setting to scan reflective documents.

### TPU: Color Neg. Film, TPU: Monochrome Neg. Film, TPU: Pos. Film

Select one of them depending on the type of film (negative or positive, color or monochrome) you are scanning while using the Film Adapter or the integrated TPU. If you are scanning color negative film, select TPU: Color Neg. Film; for monochrome negative film, select TPU: Monochrome Neg. Film; for positive film (or slides), select the TPU: Pos. Film setting.

| Note:

- When you change the Document Source from Flatbed to transparent materials (TPU: Color Neg. Film, TPU: Monochrome Neg. Film, or TPU: Pos. Film), a message appears informing you to remove the reflective document mat.

- The settings you used when you closed EPSON TWAIN the last time remain in effect. Therefore, if you scanned transparent materials by setting the Document Source to TPU: Color Neg. Film, TPU: Monochrome Neg. Film, or TPU: Pos. Film, when you start EPSON TWAIN again and try to scan reflective documents using the reflective document mat, an error massage appears. When this happens, set the Document Source to Flatbed.
