• The film has a calibration slot used to calculate the color balance by the scanner. The film cannot be scanned

with the correct color balance if this slot is obstructed. Keep this slot clear.

• Scanning with dust or dirt stuck on the document glass or light source through this slot will result in poor

image quality. Please remove all dirt according to the instructions in the Care and Maintenance section of
this guide.

5. Open the film adapter unit and place the loaded film guide in the correct position on the document glass.

• Images will not scan correctly, or error messages will display, if the film guide is positioned incorrectly. Take

care to position it correctly.

Shield

If film is loaded into a film guide with gaps around it, the bordering
areas on the scanned image may be discolored. This phenomenon is
called halation and is particularly noticeable with negative film. To avoid
it, position the film in the guide with no gaps between the film and
guide. If the film strip is shorter than the guide, use the supplied shield
to fill the gap.

Place the shield in the 120
format film groove when
you scan 35 mm film strips
and vice versa.

For scanner instructions, please see the CanoScan D1230U/D2400U
Quick Start Guide.

The “Remove Dust and Scratches” function works by scanning films with a
white light from a cold-cathode fluorescent lamp first, then scanning with
infrared light. Since the clean portions of the film are translucent to infrared rays,
the dirt and scratches are easily detected and the driver software can retouch the
affected portions of the film. Please note that scanning with this function takes
longer because it requires an extra pass. We do not recommend using this
function with KODACHROME* films. It does not work with black and white films
(positive or negative).

• Film Adapter Unit FAU-S12 is for exclusive use with

CanoScan D1230U scanners. Film Adapter Unit FAU-S13
is for exclusive use with CanoScan D2400U scanners.
Neither unit can be used with other scanners.

• The film adapter unit contains a lamp unit and other

delicate components. Be extremely careful not to drop or
bang it.

• Do not place any items on top of the film adapter unit or

press down on it.

• These items are contained in the scanner package if you

purchased a model with a preinstalled film adapter unit.

The following items are included in the film adapter unit
package. Please contact your retailer if any items are missing
or damaged.

• Start from Step 5 if you purchased a model with a preinstalled film

adapter unit.

Install the film adapter unit onto the scanner as
shown below.

1. Shut down and turn off the computer.

2. Unplug the AC adapter from the scanner.

3. Lift the scanner’s document cover

straight up and off.

4. Insert the two hinge pins on the film

adapter unit into the two holes in the
scanner body from straight above.

5. Attach the film adapter unit’s cable to

the connector on the scanner’s rear
panel.

6. Connect the AC adapter to the

scanner.

The film adapter unit is equipped with a protective sheet for the light source.
Remove this sheet before scanning films.

Replace the protective sheet over the light source when not scanning films. Non-film
items can be scanned with the protective sheet in place. Avoid pressing down heavily
on the film adapter unit to scan thick books or three-dimensional objects. Pressing on it
may damage the light source.

1. Align the sheet’s bottom holes over the tabs on the film adapter unit and slide

the sheet down.

2. Align the top holes and slide the sheet down into place.

A Slide the

sheet up and
out to free it
from the
tabs at the
top.

B Do the

same
for the
bottom.

Dampen a soft, clean cloth and wring it well before wiping dust and
dirt off the exterior (upper surface).
• Never apply a sopping wet cloth or spray

water or soap directly onto the film
adapter unit. The liquid could penetrate
the interior and either diminish image
quality or damage the unit.

• Never use alcohol, solvents or benzene.

These substances may deform, discolor
or melt the casing.

Use a blower brush to blow dust off
the document glass or light source, or
wipe them lightly with a soft, dry cloth.
• Never wipe forcefully. It will scratch the

surfaces.

• Never use alcohol, solvents or benzene.

These substances may deform, discolor or
melt the document glass or light source.

Other specifications correspond to those for the scanner.

Portions of films with curled edges and large format films, such as 4"x5"
film, may adhere to the document glass and produce ring patterns (termed
Newton rings) on the scanned image. If Newton rings appear, load the film
upside down in the guide and reverse the scanned image later with the
driver software or an application program.

35 mm Film

Shield

Load a film into the film guide as shown below and place the loaded guide onto the scanner’s document glass
(platen). The procedures are the same for both 35mm/120 format and 4”x5” film guides.

1. Insert a fingernail into the slot in the film guide and lift up while pinching the edge of the flap inward.

2. Place the film face down into the groove in the film guide. Align the first frame’s right side with the

6

 mark

on the film guide.

• Hold the film by the edges with your fingertips to avoid getting fingerprints or dirt on the film surface.
• Any dust on the film, scanner document glass or film adapter unit light source will show in the scanned images.

Remove dust with a blower brush.

• With CanoScan D2400U and FAU-S13, the small dust or scratches on the film can be removed. Please see the

instructions on the back of this sheet.

3. Close the flap by aligning its tab with the slot in the bottom piece and pressing down and inward.

4. Use the supplied shields if there are any gaps (empty frames) in the film groove.

Press inward while pressing down
to slip the tab into its slot.
