Notes
• Keeping the photo or document flat and level when feeding prevents possible jamming.

• Keep the sleeves in a safe place when not in use to prevent them from accumulating dust.
• Place the photo or document on the right edge of the feed slot and adjust the paper guide so it aligns to the left hand side of the photo
or document.
• Gently push the photo or document into the feeding slot and let go when it begins to feed into the slot.
•
When the scan has completed, a folder will be created on the SD card. Each scanned image is given a file name with the prefix ‘IMAG’ following by a 4 digit sequential number in the order the images are stored. For example IMAG0001, IMAG0002, etc.
• When you have finished scanning, press and hold the ‘on/off’ button for 2 seconds to turn off the PhotoScanner. You can now safely disconnect the power and remove the SD card.

Troubleshooting
Q. There are lines on the scanned image or the image is not clear.
A. Check the following –
Are there scratches on the original print? Remove any stains or dust
before scanning.
Has the scanner been used for a long period of time without cleaning or calibration? Follow the instructions for cleaning and calibrating the scanner and try again.
Q. The photo / document gets stuck halfway in the feeding slot.
A. Disconnect the power cord and gently take out the photo / document
that is stuck. Use the provided roller cleaning tool to clean the roller.
Q. I get a ’Memory Card Lock’ message when I press the scan button.
A. This indicates that the tab on the SD card is in the ‘LOCK’ position.
Take out the SD card and move the tab to the non-lock position.
Q. The PhotoScanner feels warm to the touch.
A. It is normal for the scanner to emit a small amount of heat after prolonged use. If there are strange odours coming from the device or if it feels hot to the touch, disconnect the power immediately from the power supply.
Q. Can I purchase additional photo sleeves?
A. Yes, we will have additional photo sleeves that you can purchase.
