Using scanner accessories
Your scanner is a powerful imaging device, but there are scanner
accessories available that can enhance your scanning efficiency.
These accessories include the Transparent Media Adapter and the
Auto Document Feeder.
• The Transparent Media Adapter (TMA) doubles the power of
your scanner as it allows you to scan transparencies. TMAs
have their own source of lighting, which is crucial to scanning
transparencies as it prevents images from being exposed to too
much lighting and getting washed out as a result.
Although 35-mm slides and filmstrips are not recommended
due to their small size and lack of resolution, you can use the
TMA to scan slides ranging from 35-mm slides and filmstrips
to transparencies as large as 8" x 10".
• The Auto Document Feeder (ADF) simplifies the scanning
processing as it allows you to scan up to 50 pages of text
unattended and works with most popular Optical Character
Recognition (OCR) software.
Note: The ADF can be used to scan text and graphics in black and white
line art, halftone, or grayscale. It cannot be used to scan color images.
For more information on the TMA and ADF, call Microtek Sales at
800-654-4160, or call the Microtek fax-back system at 310-297-
5101 to request brochures on these accessories.
