I'm trying to scan an old black and white negative. Unfortunately, it is not in a strip of six as seems to be indicated in the manual, although it doesn't say specifically it HAS to be a strip of six.
I opened MP Navigator Ex. Following are the settings I used:
Film
Film type: Black and white negative film
Resolution 4800 dpi. I also used 1200 dpi
I put the negative on the far end of the film holder.
I clicked on scan and got the following message at both resolutions:
Cannot scan for these reasons:
-The original may not be set correctly
-The Protective Sheet may be put in place
-The lamp may not be warming up
(it needs a few minutes for adjusting lamp on low temperature)
Scanner driver will be closed
Code: 2,178,0
I've scanned negatives with another scanner some years ago and never had this trouble. Any suggestions?
Thank you.
