Scanning
Materials :
You can scan the following materials on the scanner:
Mylar, Vellum, Materials mounted to foam core.
You cannot scan for any reason the following materials:- wood
- metal of any kind
- abrasive materials
- wet glue or paint
- anything with spray mount
- charcoal drawings
Scanning any of these materials will result in serious damage to the scanner.
- The scanner needs to be calibrated when the images appear very light. See a DM staff member to calibrate the scanner.
IMPORTANT: The scanner runs through a calibration process every time it is turned on. If the scanner needs to be restarted, see a DM staff member to use the proper calibration tools.
- If a DM staff member is not available, insert a 40" long white strip of paper through the scanner as you start it. Keep the paper in place until the scanner has finished warming up. This can be used as a temporary solution when restarting the scanner. Failure to insert a white strip will cause the scanner to be mis-calibrated and your files will not scan correctly.
