About the Dimage Scan Multi and Multi II
The DiMAGE Scan Utility can be used with the Dimage Scan Multi and Multi II model
scanners. However, certain functions are not available:
The input-resolution range for the Dimage Multi is 176 dpi to 2810 dpi for 35mm film
and 70 dpi to 1128 dpi with medium-format film. After completing the registration
routine with the serial-number button in the preferences window (p 30), the input-
resolution range for the Dimage Multi II is 176 dpi to 2810 dpi for 35mm film and 70
dpi to 2810 dpi with medium-format film.
When the DiMAGE Scan Utility is installed, the scanner profiles listed below are
automatically installed for these model scanners, see page 68 for the location. These
profiles have been included for advanced color matching with profile-to-profile
conversions in sophisticated image-processing or DTP applications.
When using these
profiles, the color reproduced may not be the same as the color matching system in
the utility software.
MLTF3100.icc - used with positive film at any color depth other than 16-bit linear.
MLTF3100p.icc - used with positive film with 16-bit linear color depth.
Record keeping
Keeping records when scanning is important. It allows for results to be reproduced as
well as a good reference for settings when new images are scanned. Records are also
a useful learning tool; they document both successes and failures.
The data sheet on the following page may be copied and used to record scanner
settings. Details on the film, exposure, and any special filters or processing used can
be noted.
