EASY SCAN UTILITY
10
The DiMAGE Scan Easy Scan Utility is a simple, automatic scanning application for
trouble-free scans. The utility works as a stand-alone program, and cannot be
launched through another application. This software is not available with all scanner
models, see the scanner notes section in the scanner instruction manual.
The following settings are automatically made when using the Easy Scan Utility:
• Autofocusing with each 35mm frame, or with the first APS frame only.
• Index scan priority: speed setting (p. 29).
• Automatic shutdown of the utility at the end of the scan.
• Color depth: 8 bit.
• No multi-sample scanning.
• Automatic cropping to inside edge (p. 19).
• When Digital ROC is active, color matching is turned off.
• sRGB output color space when color matching is on. (p. 60)
• Auto exposure with all films except black and white slides.
Open the DiMAGE Scan folder. Double click the DiMAGE
Scan Easy icon.
Launching the Easy Scan Utility

Macintosh
Do not launch the utility with a film holder in the scanner. If the scanner model has a
manual front door, the door must be closed.
Using the Easy Scan Utility
Select the film format and film type to be
scanned on the drop-down menus. Click the
next button.
The film formats that can be chosen vary
between scanner model. The following types of
film can be selected: color negative, color posi-
tive, B&W negative, B&W positive. Film for
slides is a positive film. Film for prints is a neg-
ative film.
When the East Scan Utility has launched, the easy scan wizard opens. Simply follow
the instructions on the wizard to scan images.
Load the appropriate film holder and insert it into the scanner. Refer to the scanner
hardware manual on how to load and insert a film holder as well as film handling
and care. If a holder is not inserted when an index scan or the final scan is made, a
warning will be displayed requesting the holder be set properly.
Select the appropriate radio button depending
on if a index scan is required. An index scan
displays a thumbnail image of all the images in
the holder. This is especially useful when a
selection needs to be made between similar
negatives on one strip of film. Click the next
button to start the index scan or continue the
scanner setup.
